She came and spread a little laughter
on a meal that was lovelier
for her presence, and filled us more
than it would have without her.
There’s no need- only a longing
for those clear blue eyes to have come
from mine, from his, and no other’s.
She came, and she went, and she left us
aching as if we might one day attain something
we’ll never have, even when they both come home
and we are We, for just a moment,
without the Others.
