Now I visit the studio twice a week. Sometimes I play, sometimes I listen to his recordings. My daughter came once, and I played one of Robert’s recordings for her. My fingers stumbled, the tempo wasn’t perfect, but it was full of love. She cried when she heard it.
Last week, I recorded my first piece in 60 years. My hands aren’t nimble anymore, and I made mistakes, but I finished. I labeled it “For Robert” and placed it on the shelf beside his.
Now we’re together again—in the only way that matters.
For 63 years, he gave me flowers. And from beyond, he gave me back the dream I thought I had lost.
