I like the spare quality in the speaker’s longing very much… one from my pocket:

handful of agates
nootka roses on the wind
this far without you

Your poem was fun, for me! First read, I thought it sad and moving. Second read, I imagined that the person COULD be relieved that he was finally left to his own thoughts and imagination.

Fantastic one liner. So much in it, what’s there and what’s not.

Oh, Roberta, My John always knew the name of everything! And you’ve named the spot where I now live.

Alone under the stars and living
in the precious memory.
