twenty-four hours and counting......... I have been called home to the realm above I must submit a bow and gracefully move forward I must leave you behind my friend, my life.... But, for now...... I shall, sing a symphony of celebration dance naked deep within the trees of belief dive from the highest cliff I can find sit quietly and sip chamomile tea I will run as fast as I can skipping and jumping up to each cloud I see I will relish each moment with a ponder and a plea as the clock tics down to a grand completion I will fall upon my knees a prayer of thanks I will recite a word of encouragement to each one who has brought me into the light I sit for now, grateful for each second spent next to you a grateful journey of splendid yesterdays joyous the celebration , I pledge to watch over thee goodbye for now......... soon a flight to be free................. quite a Tantalize sensation wings a halo yes , it is me..........

Nice spiritual read. Thanks Rick for the comfort in dealing with my son. For a major sinner, I've been truly blessed. Good Bless. Vince

Your work is always so uplifting, Rick. There are so many negative poems that make the reader feel sad. When I long for a happy escape, I turn to the poems of Rick Parise. Excellent entry for the contest, my friend, and I wish you success. Love, Carolyn
