The Alpine
by Barbara Anna Gaiardoni
Stay with him, sing edelweiss.
His profile seems to emerge from
the ground like petals of
snowdrops in mid-bloom.
You taught love of simplicity,
worth of common sense,
importance of observing
the world around.
Now you're on the highest point
on a peak where walls meet
forming a triangle and up there
we’ll meet again.
