May 8
abegail,
        you came in this orb
   a yellow bell in its bush,
                flourishing
you are beautiful,
      in the most delicate,
most demure but loud

you were a friend
         and i see you in every
wilting flower
     that i pass on streets
  because why does the world
only choose      the beautiful,
       in their most tender age,
                 to wither and fall
to abegail who died of cancer
