What a wonderful, poignant and beautifully written poem. This was a wonderful way to start the day: bravo y ole'.

And I, like the mower, sputtered to a stop in my morning, breath caught in my throat and rasped out a sudden cry, tears down my face. Thank you for this gorgeous poem, for this perfect description of how wordless grief starts in the body and continues, unmowed, for years.
