THE STORY OF MARCH

Where in school, I wonder,
do they teach you the price
of memories?  

How much they cost?  

Because on that day
your body was a cathedral and
our silence, an intimate prayer

(A mute supplication)

which we set on the window pane
next to the red rose.
As I recall,

the pearl white earring

loitered patiently
on the desk.
