Never Forgotten: For a Dear Friend Just Passed

Leaves a’ rustling So near to me I feel your hot breath I smell my fate, close Wild Wild I started Grew too fast, too bold Grew beyond myself, grown far too old Yet looking back now I regret, I fear If this is really the end... How did I get here? My skin, now so dry So vibrant it was My colour now gone Gone forever, anon As thoughts peel from my frame My solid roots fray I glide through sky blue I drift in breeze fair I’m watching all again As if I were yet to press play! I land on moist soil I rest on this rich earth Eyelids heavy I’ve found my last hearth My resting place My journey complete My adventure has ended I cecum to fates grace That breeze was so sturdy That wind so forceful It carried me quickly As if remorseless Yet as I lay here Thoughts are so peaceful and clear I see myself, I see my worth What I did to this world…..what I left in my berth I now know why As dawn becomes dusk I’m finally satisfied They saw enough.
