Message to Jane
Where are you now, Jane?
Have you sailed to the Milky Way?
Do you dwell in the heart of our galaxy,
winking at us from the constellation Sagittarius?
Do you know what you are to me?
Can you feel my gratitude?
I see you walking in beauty still
at home in the immensity,
visiting me in dreams.
Today is your birth day
but you are beyond measure,
pouring your light into the eternal flow.
