spark in the dust

there was a spark in the dust

amidst the cacophony 

a spark kept close to the chest

in a life lived in the peripheral 

in a life lost to the wind that whispered 

“…not for you…” still

she had names for may be 

Echo Lynn, Skye Marie, Gideon Robert


there was a spark in the dust

she never shared, alone in 

a marriage of one
