Perfect Proposal anniversary (9)
Mom & Dad's anniversary (13)
A.'s & my anniversary (18)
Father's Day (21)
& friends' & family's birthdays scattered through the month
This time, last year --
Death's invitation (to Dad) arrived
as Diabetic's Slumber & Kidneys' Failure.
And June's approach
became Dad's life with us ending.
Our eyes' mourning
began to see
what June would become . . .
Summer's slow passing.
