"Until It's Time"

I'll remember...
sharing unrehearsed walks
lingering talks
yet never having
to search the silence
for something to say.

Anxious...
though unhurried,
but hoping for time...
time to cast in bronze memory
all the things that went unsaid.

I know it isn't good-bye
perhaps just another kind
of knowing you.
No, I never told you--
but thanks for all
the beautiful metaphors.

And yes
I'll cast you in bronze memory
until it's time....
