I pen this poem and think fondly of my departed parents in the afterlife -- my father left in July 1998, and my mother since April 2013 -- with feelings of gratitude and love.

MEMORY
By Leon Enriquez
Ripples in time
Echoes and chimes
Meet misty mimes
Etch in olde sketch
Moments that match
Blur missing patch
~~~~~~~~~
End marks strange start
Rest broken heart
Ink stains word art
Now and Here streams
Glimpse of new dreams
Meet thus new theme
~~~~~~~~~
You in times past
Dance with odd cast
Ending at last
Prize the old days
Tryst simple stay
Rest of end play
~~~~~~~~~
Touch of plain fare
Explains odd wares
Describe strange cares
Pulse in lost strains
Apt as old pains
Report lost gain
~~~~~~~~~
Exit odd fate
Note broken state
Thoughts at the gate
Stillness allots
Sleep beyond plot
Ice cold last slot
~~~~~~~~~
Mind gone away
Old textures stay
Notes yesterday
Ask that the light
Niche warm and bright
Dance and dream flight
~~~~~~~~~
Ere time slides past
Now frames sad cast
Glimpse truth at last
Nice feel greets grace
Echoes now trace
Opt smiles in place
~~~~~~~~~
Etch odd ripple
Note cold drizzle
Rich feel dazzles
Ink stains thus dwell
Quest that prompts tell
Urge in new spell
~~~~~~~~~
Embrace due calm
Zeal spreads fine balm
Here in wise psalm
Etch of new hymn
Rich precious theme
End of old dream
~~~~~~~~~
