sherku: tear


He lay sleeping
Breathing slowly
Clearly a tear
In the corner
Of his eye



What is a sherku?   

Composed for my father Gerald Sherlock. He left this world on Feb 19, 2012 so while the physical visits have ended, the remembrance of those visits will linger as long as the muse allows.
