First
poetry by Diane Arkenstone
You were always first.
At 5 years old you jumped out of the apple tree,
blossoms all over the lawn, and not a scratch on you.
Or out the 2nd story window where Mom and Dad could not hear the laughter.
You climbed up the cliff before me, but rain the night before caused the ledge to give way.
I spread handfuls of blossoms on your casket, Mom and Dad were never the same.
The higher the better you said, the world is beautiful from above.
Lifetimes later I still smell the apple blossoms, on the lawn and across your smiling face.
