Notes About The Poem

This poem is part of a story of two friends that found love, had a family then part of that family died in a traject accident then found solace in a dream.

Like a Father in Endless Space

A feather falling, floating, following my life in endless space
Meeting sunsets on oceans in pinks, reds and delicious orange spread across horizons
Passing in slow motion as birds squawk goodbye flapping wing
Red skies this morning    my heart pounds to a quick
Anxiety runs, fleeing from memories where you held me like a stuffed toy cuddled
A future we thought we knew blew across my face spilling wet grief
The course of love    like jewels fallen from heaven meet the ground
Treasures   buried in sightless time
My heart was a gift    without threads to mend it
I knew you with a touch    in waves moments that defined us
In a tragic second   shadowed memories   my gift my grief
Our children at hand   kissing your passing in love with trembling emotions
Your ghost haunts my life, floating   like a falling feather in endless space

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
