Sands of Time

Herself speaks.

Yesterday marked one year since my lovely Daddy's passing from this earth.  It's hard to believe it has been a full year, and yet only a year. 

It has been a long, terrible year. For many reasons, including the absence of my beloved, lovely Daddy.

I drove out to White Sands. It was cool, and cloudy, and ever so quiet. I took a walk out, careful to mark my path lest I get lost in the sea of dunes. I sat for a while. I tried to talk to Daddy, but I didn't really know what to say.

I'm taking care of things.

I've tried my best.

I hope you are at peace.

I wrote, I miss you, into the sand.  The winds will blow it away in time. 

I walked back through the dunes. Back to reality. 

On we go.
