Forgive me,
I chatter about my
husband incessantly,
much like new parents
talk about first teeth
and first steps,
gratefully
I don't dwell on lasts
much,
because through
the grace of God,
I did not know they
were lasts.
However, I remember
our
last
dance,
he took my hand
in his
and led me
to the dance floor
our friends near,
he held me close,
we moved in sync
to each other
and the music,
his face pinched
in pain,
I urged him to sit-
No, he said,
I know you
like to dance.

Though so filled with sadness, I think it might be part celebration, too. Your husband loved you, and I imagine he wanted that dance too. I'm glad you have that memory, though you're expressing mixed feelings, too. Beautifully written, just that moment. Thank you for sharing.
A moment in time, relishing the memory with your special man. Thank you for sharing this moment with us. Hugs
