I love the warmth of your smile

I love the warmth of your smile

It shines from all the photographs,  and for a while

It seems impossible that you’re not here 

At the end of a phone, on Facetime. Where

Do people go when they die?

I believe in an after life, I

Can sense your presence all around.

Without a sound 

You comfort me.

So , wherever you are, you’re where I need you to be.
