Notes About The Poem

                

Richard Lamoureux

Figure of a man, constantly open

 Poetry marriage that makes him richer 

 Her heart and beauty a gift so golden

 Separate it would change, die, and wither

 
Friendship woven his unfailing embrace

Knowing   not about him; external blessed

Through unassuming nature God gives grace

Gratitude words spoken his life expressed


Love of the tall pine and Mckinley beach 

Journey hand in hand through umber forest

Embracing warm home, changed eyes within reach

Captive to lucid euphoric promise


Blessed interest with family and friends  

Personal journey of faith God ascends

Richard
Husband, son, father, friend
Mary's sweetie, Matthew's dad, Edith's son, brother to Teresa and Roy
Lover of family, friends and time alone 
Who feels passion, joy and doubt
Who fears rejection, being forgotten and failure
Who would like to see Paris, Greece and the face of my Savior
Resident of Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada
Lamoureux

Richard
Proud, deceitful, lustful, liar
holder of grudges, occupier of dark thoughts
Competitive to a fault, craver of things material
Temptations target
Who feels torn in two
Who fears his darker instincts
Resident and member of humanity
Lamoureux
