Already I’ve forgotten what you wore
Sunday, standing by the fridge; it was black,
And your arm supported the broom you were
About to use; but I remember
The studied intensity about your brow and eyes
As with hand gracing
The air before your face you conducted
Schubert’s B flat Sonata played by Brendel
If there were reincarnation
Through a thousand lives I would remember
Those moments when I saw into
The soul most lovable whom I most love.
