Just Ask

JUST ASK

if you forget My Name
just ask
if you forget how many neutrino families I created
just ask
if you've forgotten again just how lucky this is--
how many million holocausts you've survived
if you've forgetten the birth pangs 
at the beginning of the universe
just ask
if you forget how much I like to play
just ask
if you forget how much I love you
just ask

I just want to say, thank you.

Though we only met once, a chance encounter, your poetry continues to bring blessings into my life.

Love,
