A Phosphorescent Moment in Time

A Phosphorescent Moment in Time
--For Andrew and Rita

Every time a smile is cajoled onto your lips
your eyes glitter with the gleam of fresh wonderment
and when you laughed I saw you, unfettered and unburdened
I can only say, unambiguously
to let your assurgent spirits fly in this phosphorescent moment in time
this tenuous, tremulous present is all we every have
find a cavern in this moment
let the faint dew of eupathy lightly caress your head
stand taller, your courage inspissate
& bury the purgatory yesterday in the pathos of splendid tomorrows.
