“And now from the distance of time Jane Hirshfield And now from the distance of time when stories are over one in a frame on a dresser one left to remember you left with nowhere to leave to a world where nothing can vanish can vanish from inside the trees or above them the moon blameless as I was as you were call it weather call it something that lives outside measure a lifetime apart a lifetime together are neither forever nor never a lifetime together a lifetime apart one person turns into another forgive past forgive future departure a story continues beyond its erasure we were two oars dividing one water and time cannot sever”
