From upon my lids
Rise the darkness of your kisses
From upon my face
The shadows of your smile
From upon my soul
The lightness of your step
Walks away the road no more
Caithleen Carter Steeves
Rise the darkness of your kisses
From upon my face
The shadows of your smile
From upon my soul
The lightness of your step
Walks away the road no more

three days before a truck accident that placed my husband and my family in a very different living situation I had a vision of his boots on the bathroom floor with a light all around them.This poem is to him and in honor of all the lessons he taught me, and our children,all the compassion he instilled in our minds, and the profound regard for the ordinary and how not to take it for granted.
