Happy Birthday, Jennifer
Note:
Jennifer, I hope your birthday (28 August) was sweet and special, dear friend. You have given so much to Poetry Soup and the poets therein. Written lovingly in emulation of your inimitable style.
Wouldn't it be heaven:
to be
set free
from every
boundary
from time and gravity
from crime and war
and hatred we abhor
see the loved ones we knew before
To float in streams
and fly in dreams
to be free from fear
see colors so clear
and have new ones appear
Soaring like birds
on wings of words
nature's draught imbibed
lovingly described
a trek over stream and dale
tell a versified tale
Sharing our feasts
with birds and beasts
no conflict or strife
a non-violent life
enveloped in the peace we dream of
these three remain: faith, hope, love
Hearing trumpets resound
children's laughter abound
to be absolved of all sin
free of dark thoughts within
to reunite with those we have missed
as we dance in the heavenly mist
the undying goal
of the undying soul
to walk with God
on heaven's sod
to know traquility
for eternity
