News of Robin’s death.
First iris– progeny of my parents’ irises – blooms,
is snipped, and put in the empty
pear preserves jar – the kind my father loved.
Life persists; cycles cycle.
A rainy day starts in Central Texas.
My gratitude for life is boundless.

A rainy day in New Mexico too, but no irises yet. Beautiful, heartbreaking, poem.
