Part of your plan

I guess this is part of your plan

To spend time
With our beautiful friend
In her dying.

This is where you say
How much
you appreciate her.

How much
her love
Has meant to you.

How much
Her love
Has shaped your life
Through her daughter

How
Her love filled the spaces
Where I left
Big holes
Unable to give
What I did not have

or even
know that I lacked.
She
Brought healing
To us both

How good
It is to have
A village
To help
Raise a child.

She will know
What you mean.
How you’re glad
That you’ll
See her again.
In the next realm

But you know all this
And I’m sure it is

Part of your plan.
