Five Candles

The face that I had loved so well
lost in Nod's misty rivers
as I looked long by the railing
so utterly lost
in her

bowed serenely in larkish prayer.
The changeling was unaware
slipping through time's filmy chaplet
wreathed by fireflies and melody
she fell

into inevitable chrysalis.
Babyhood flickered
in that last exhale
Furled smoke emerged
ocean-eyed
flutterby.

I wept to wet her wings.
