Honoring for Andy
It never gets old
Honoring you
Honoring her
Has it really been that long?
It seems but yesterday
Because the memories
Are so strong
Her voice ringing in my head
Her kindness weighing on my heart
With dark news
The generosity of one
Taken from all of us
Way, way, way too soon
Then, you and I
Never able to look at each other
For so long
It separated us
It was massive
The weight of it
The power of it
You just can’t shelve it
You never grieve
All at once
But there you are, again
one more year
Older
Yet she never grew older
Which will keep us
From also getting older
Because we can keep
Honoring you
As we honor her
