Dear Sean had a piece recently on the memory of Claude. She left precious memories behind. Whenever I share a social photo, I expect as if she is still there and she will make some lovely comments. If nothing else, I am glad that I met Claude through blogging. I wish her rest in piece.
… and so am I, almost, on the first anniversary of Claude’s death, which is why I let her speak.
She sent me this poem in December 2018.
THE MOONLIGHT IS SPEECHLESS…
She worked hard at being able
to think THINK instead of PENSER
to write a flawless letter to England as well as to France
to add Shelley to Lamartine
to exude Gallic charm mixed with British romanticism
