We walked down to the sea front To mark an anniversary We let the rain drops wash our faces Like God weeping over the memorial Writing the letters of your name In the slightly wet sand So that even when it seems the world cannot recollect We know the sea will never forget Like us, it holds on, inhales the letters And it breathes your memory Out, with the break of a wave Sending the sparks of your life Everywhere Waves of Stardust tells the story of Elizabeth Lockwood's fourth child, who died shortly after birth, and the grief that followed. Poems of love, loss, life and hope, this collection offers a glimpse at raw, early grief.
