light through the larkspur


 the late afternoon sun,
 casts such a beautiful light,
through the luminous flowers,
 nestled around this old bench,
 at the back of my property.







 peter,
and his wifey,
frolicking
 in the light.

i am.
in.
the.
light.

loved ones who give the ultimate sacrifice
in order for us to live free

we remember
today
and every day
