Poem: Remembrance


She left
the fortune seekers land
was waiting for her

pangs of regret
pangs of love
deep within her
heavy heavy heart

puzzled and bemused
he stared at the monitor
waiting to hear
just waiting to hear

days had passed
with no response
he felt helpless
hope was a ray of light

one day she wrote
"when i open my eyes
to that beautiful view,
i see her standing tall on liberty island,
the next thought is you"

he vowed to himself
to get there once
genuflect and say thanks
his life now had
a new french connection
