FOR TONY WASS

Missing you,

You nurtured me,

Helped me to write again,

My mind captured by words,

Poems that enfolded my heart.

I don’t know where you are.

Last week I spoke to an empty chair.

I couldn’t see you, hear your voice,

I longed to see you smile,

Touch your face.

I’ve lost your poems,

But can recall a few.

They link me to you.
