 I Still Remember Them
In the weeks and months after someone you loved has died (or has been taken from you for another reason), it's not surprising that you can be going about your ordinary business when suddenly a thought of that person will break into your consciousness. Much later, however, you continue to remember this person, as shown in this poem of memories of a loved one. An illustrated poem for slower connections and an illustrated poem for faster connections expresses the experience of recovery from loss of someone from whom you've learned much and shared many adventures.
 When I Am Gone . . .
If we view our lives as part of the entire sweep of history, we will realize that death has always been, and will always be, an integral part of the sweep of humankind. We will also realize that it is not how long we live that matters, but how we live. Thus this poem about the world we will leave behind reminds us of our obligation to future generations. The poem is also illustrated for slower connections and for faster connections.
