before he died - i could - pretend
forever - was our lot -
and circumscribe- with poet's pen -
those deeds that - i'd forgot.
the words unspoke - the plans undone -
tomorrow - would - be time
enough for these - i reasoned - once
and therein - was - my crime.
some day - thought i - more time to spend
together - like as not.
and framing thus - our circumstance -
no remedy - was sought.
and even now - with poet's pen -
i bind them up - with rhyme!
regrets - still - onto now - from then
all set upon - a line.
