LOOKING FORWARD, SEEING BACK

by Mary S. Van Deusen (Virgo) - Not entered

Grieve, Spock,
For a Captain's footfalls broken into atoms that can never be cojoined,<br>
Silent sounds to echo in the corridor without your door,
Inside your mind.
I reach out for your pain to ease my own,
And touch a cool, long-fingered mother's hand
That, for a moment,
Lives again within my own.

Reason for writing:

    To explain why I'm a Trekker.
