Owen launched like a rocket into this world a year ago
and left us so few months later
our grief now interwoven into our quotidian lives
I held him four times, count them, only when he was on the "end of life" list
how those words landed will always be remembered
and now what
we keep going, I guess, and we try again
to welcome a baby, a perfect one, who carries in them
Owen's spark.
