In lieu of flowers
please send second chances
to help us allay
our deepest regrets
send us more time
to read and rewind hours
we wasted on guilt and
resisting the truth in our lives
please send us a way
to unsay our unkind words
and to treasure the everyday
more than special somedays
that seldom arrived
or failed to last if they did
please send love that remembers
and pain that forgets
let our sweet days seem long
and the long longer yet
let us write the unwritten
dance dances undanced
please no flowers instead
send second chances
