Maybe the sky doesn't have to darken,
break or cry out like the Hollywood films,
but something should happen,
something should happen to break up the day,
make us pause
wonder
hunger
catch our breath
skip a beat
something to mark
great sacrifice and loss.
It's hard to remember
that birth can be painful
that April can be cruel
that every spring I lose you
in days too sunny to see.
