Resurrecting Dad

I want to fill my space with you
Every bit and piece of you
Strewn all over this loft

I want to clone you
Carve you from memory
So every sinew in you is plain to see

I want you here
So close to me
That you could never leave again

At last, I have you
Every bit and piece of you
Etched on my psyche

Do you remember the flowers: plant some. Rosemary for remembrance, pansies for thoughtful reflection.
they give a focus for your thoughts and your sole.
