From a friend via Facebook.
three short poems
by Emily Remillard
1.
submerged in your deep gladness
your maple syrup joy
suspended like a slow-floating bubble
in your golden liquid presence
i marvel.
you have changed the whole conversation of my life.
2.
having just tossed something heavy and sacred into the river,
i find myself giggling.
you teach me how to make my feet light.
3.
when i wasn't looking
you replaced my rule book with our family photo album
you're telling me i looked like you all along
and didn't even know it.
(written October 2009)
