A Candle For The Dead
A poem

I sent you a message today,
It was not planned
But a mere passing moment
lost in time.
I was caught up
In a momentary stupor
When I read the notification
On my cell phone screen
So perhaps instinctively,
Or maybe propelled by a stranger force,
One that inspires a deep melancholy,
Accompanied by sweet memories.
My fingers started motioning,
And heartfelt words began appearing:
