if it weren't for cancer

i wish you could have been here, mom, to see the sunset tonight. you would have seen the beauty in my daughter's eyes and the amazement she saw in the fading fire of the sun's last rays beaming from beneath the clouds. the mountains were nearly violet against the brilliant red and orange; storm clouds loomed nearby, the air fresh with moistened pine.

in that sunset, i saw your smile, for i knew that you would have loved it glowing in my daughter's eyes.
