We watch with quiet interest from the side as the memory of our
friend in the strange world of cyberspace starts to form. Miss Svetlana Marisova
was very clever with words and a lover of poetry in particular haiku. She often
implied the Ghost Writer was a bit of a one for using too many words. Miss Svetlana
once turned two of his mad little attempts at poetry into haiku and these are
what she wrote
summer wind -
grains of sand slip through
my fingers too
and
noonday sun -
shadows also
hide
Svetlana Marisova died from brain cancer at the age of 21,
on September 7th 2011 but her memory will continue in the hearts and minds of
her family and friends; and through her words for many others. The Ghost Writer
had always hoped that she would write a swirling epic novel but alas it was not
to be. In many ways we were just ships passing in the night each appreciative of
the words of the other.
We hope your spirit will continue to live in the words
you left behind Miss Svetlana X.
