Wet, still dripping from the outgoing tide
the white limpet shells nestle neath the slime
under the feet of those who lift their heads
to watch the new sun rise, having said
their last heartfelt sad goodbyes once more to
wives, friends, husbands, sons and lovers who
although with regret may leave their family
to spend time with a closer company

This is beautiful, Bobby.
Hope you had a good Christmas, and may you thrive in 2025 🙂
