Birthday Poem

I remember you
your eyes created day
and taught it how to rain
and made our dreaming safe

I remember you
your lips breathed life around
and gave each thing a sound
so it could all be found

I remember you
your arms brought warmth to share
legs took us everywhere
your face it showed us who and what we were

Yes I remember you -- in the far-off scent of fall
It's I myself I cannot quite recall
