“aplomB”
(I’ve decided to do the a-to-z challenge by using the last letter of the word rather than the first because… well, just because.)
you lived your life with such aplomb,
and strength, and so much joie de vivre,
it’s like your ripples just keep getting larger
and stronger
the love you poured out like a psalm,
a memory to which we’ll cleave –
the love you left is only getting bigger
and longer
