To Our Precious Connie

No words can express how much I miss you and your wise words. Guess from now on we will speak, heart to heart *soul to soul to each other, my friend. For you and I both know there is no end, only new frontiers She was a poet of pure kindness and honest reflection so, I chose a few of her words and gave them resurrection Leaving on a Jet Plane by: Connie Marcum /2013 When sunset ushers a sky violet blue At the first star’s light, my thoughts are of you. And when I gaze into the moonlit sea. Lights dancing on water, you are with me. When a lovely flower bends to the breeze I picture your face, so eager to please. As I fly away to a distant land You dwell in my heart; I’m at your command. I love your deep voice and things that you say, And ways you miss me when I am away. I don’t want to extinguish this fire, Though it consumes my mind with desire. I long for the moment we’ll reunite And I'll share your kisses throughout the night. Note: After all those flights you have finally landed safely home. Rest In Peace, Dear Friend.

Thank you Rose for this beautiful and uplifting tribute to our dear Connie. Her words remain, and we honor her memory by reading them and writing new poems of our own. There have been many lovely expressions this week to remember Connie by, happy I was able to read this one as well. Very touching. Blessings ~ John
