Vigil
Gnarled fingers,
                   decorated
with a web of fine lines
that speak of hard work,
passion and perseverance,
slide gentle and cool
across my palm.
A light squeeze -
a greeting and I love you
and I’m going to miss you
in the simplest language of all.


Free verse. Written 28 February 2019.
