raise a glass
large full table laden with food
crowded with family of all shapes
all somehow shaped by the
one
who watches from above the raised glasses
one who lived
order-------truth-------righteousness
scrabble pieces straight and even on the board
crosswords completed in ink
------- mistakes whited out
a smile at honest effort
a frown at a harsh word
a moment of reflective silence
spreads around the table
like a waft of fragrance from a bouquet of lilies
