Listen ~ 5 minutes
we mark things
with numbers
50, 5, 200
on your birthday
I think of you
a Beloved baby held with delight
celebrated
celebrated again and again as the years pass
your smile
your laughter
the beauty of you that you bring to the world
the way that you offer it
the way that you have offered it to me
and how much that has made me
who I am in this moment
on your death day
I remember the moment of the last breath
the way you exhaled
like a kiss to the universe
and then succumbed
and that I continued to hold your hand
in gratitude for all that you had been to me
for the way you offered your gifts to the world
and the ways that shaped who I am in this moment
and we’ve gathered many, many times
this community, these beautiful beings
who come to connect, to offer love
to bring gifts together and to offer them to each other
and to the world
and we remember the gathering
we remember the ways we have been touched by this
and how much this has made us
who we are in this moment
why do we mark birthdays
count years gone by
count footprints in the snow
breaths gathering
to remember to remember
