Fourth Tribute

"The Process of Mending"
by:  Eric L. Boddie

Before I ever thought that I would write
Radiance, conquered your inner light
On the occasion that you just might
Keep all the pain you have in clear sight
Eric knows that this is not right
Nothing in you is negatively bright
What I see is the purpose of our fight
It is the Beauty that ends every dark night
New inspiration that takes off and takes flight
Godly Ambitions Of The Purest Height
Saving me through inspiration so keep your pen tight

Eric, a nice acrostic spelling out broken wings so I know it is for me, sometimes you like to be mysterious, you want us to search for clues, your words ring true each night I put down my pen weary of the dripping words and each morning I take it up with new inspiration that came in dreams , my pen is always close A7 And of course this is going in my favorites thank you
