Mirror Of Light
For Sara Teasdale
By Bobbi Sinha-Morey
On the lap of earth petals
of light quivered upon her
grave, her spirit hushed
like love that had been
tightly sealed away, her
strange victory a quiet
ascent to heaven, white
birds around her lost in
their flight. The sough of
a once silent God pierces
the air of the winter sky,
his mirror reflecting a tiny
globe of aurorean light for
her soul to see by. Her words
die on a breath of eternity,
dwelling nowhere but what’s
left on paper.
