My poem was too long so I had to wrote it in two separate parts.
In a quiet town where memories blend,
Lived a man named Mike, a cherished friend.
At fifty-nine, his journey took a new flight,
Into a realm of everlasting light.
A son, a branch upon the tree,
Of family roots, for all to see.
He carried on with strength and grace,
A loving son, leaving his trace.
Within life’s joys and its darkest of nights,
He stood by her, Heather, his loving wife.
Together, hand in hand, they faced every test,
For in each other, they found their best.
A brother’s bond, a precious art,
Forever, he will remain within their hearts.
With scraped knees and stormy nights,
He was their beacon, shining bright.
With gentle hands and a loving heart,
He guided his children from the very start.
He was their hero, always on their side,
He taught them to speak, to walk, and to ride.
With open arms and a playful grin,
An uncle's love would always win.
He’d offer a coin with a teasing grace,
For a niece’s kiss upon his face.
Then came the day, a precious sight,
His heart swelled with love and light.
With open arms and a loving heart,
He played his special papa part.
A friend to many tried and true,
He shared a bond with so many of you.
With his “tough love” ways, he stood his ground,
If you ever needed him, he could always be found.
For the Toronto Maple Leafs, oh, how he’d cheer,
In front of the TV, with an ice-cold beer.
Each goal he’d celebrate, each save he’d praise,
Through wins and losses, his loyalty would stay.
He skated strong, with sticks and dreams,
A loyal player of the Dresden Minor hockey team.
OMHA titles three times, he claimed,
His name is forever printed in Dresden’s Sports Hall of Fame.
Come and see the tiny baby,
sleeping on a bed of straw.
The angels came and sang His praises,
and shepherds watched in silent awe.
Come and see who's in the temple,
listening to the rabbis teach;
a twelve year old who asks them questions,
His wisdom is beyond their reach.
"Come and see," said John The Baptist,
"The Lamb of God sent from above.
On Him the Father sent His Spirit,
it came down on Him like a dove."
"Come and see," insisted Andrew,
when he found Simon by the sea.
"I believe we've found Messiah.
Drop your nets and come with me."
"Come and see", cried out the woman,
"The man who told me all I'd done.
He said He'd give me living water.
Could He be the Holy One?"
Come and see this man called Jesus.
He heals the sick, the blind, the lame.
Even demons are subject to Him.
Those He touches are never the same.
Come and see this Jewish Rabbi,
as He teaches on the hill.
The crowds are spellbound by His message,
He teaches them about God's will.
Come and see the righteous anger,
of the man from Galilee.
See Him cleanse the crowded temple,
of the merchants and their greed.
Come and see the Lord at prayer,
in the garden on His knees.
Sweating drops of blood in anguish,
God's will be done is what He pleads.
Come and see the man betrayed,
by His own disciple's kiss.
Sold for thirty silver coins,
by a traitor in His midst.
Come and see the suffering servant,
hands and feet nailed to the cross.
Hear Him say, "Father, forgive them,"
as His friends weep for their loss.
Come and see, His tomb is empty.
See, the stone has been rolled away.
The Son of God has conquered death,
He has risen from the grave.
Come and see the risen Savior,
See and touch His nail-pierced hands.
Hear Him say, "Go preach the gospel,
to every nation, every land."
Come and see, men, women, children,
Jesus is the Life, the Truth, the Way,
to peace and joy and life everlasting.
Believe in Him without delay.

??Genesis 29:8 KJVAAE??
[8] And they said, We cannot, until all the flocks be gathered together, and till they roll the stone from the well's mouth; then we water the sheep.
??1 Corinthians 10:4 KJVAAE??
[4] and did all drink the same spiritual drink; for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
??Zechariah 14:8 KJVAAE??
[8] And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
??John 4:13-14 KJVAAE??
[13] Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: [14] but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
Flooding the earth in the days of Noah with water didn't work, For, know we have access to the Living water that creates within a new spiritual living being that does work, but just as at Pentacost, world religion tries to destroy for their own self praise and glory.
Jesus has to roll away Ones Stony hearts that the Living Spirit might
Flow throughout, purifying One into A Child of the Living God.
*”If music be the food of love, play on.”
Play hard, but with a sweet guitar, play softly too.
Each note you play, I’ll sing along with you.
Play for me from night until the dawn.
If dancing be the food of love, dance on.
Tango me or waltz me around the room.
Rock and roll me underneath the moon.
Let me glide beside you like chiffon.
If artwork be the food of love, paint on.
Swirl your many colors; paint with glory
our wonderful and everlasting story -
works of art our progeny might smile upon.
* first line referenced to Shakespeare

Death's the harbinger of eternal sleep,
where souls slumber in everlasting peace.
And yet, family and friends tend to weep
when a loved one's earthly connections cease.
And while memories cause tears to increase,
a fractured heart honors the soul's release.
Death is beautiful, not an ugly thing—
for you'll not feel thirst or hunger again.
And you will become one with everything,
instantly freed from all your fears and pain.
There'll be no anxieties to constrain,
for a soul without limits has free rein.
Your soul will ascend from its mortal guise
into a spiritual dimension,
for the soul lives on, though the body dies.
That we're souls is a point of contention;
and yet, belief overcomes dissension,
while Death's our only means of ascension.
Death's an Angel, assigned to turn life off
and help souls ascend—let the doubters scoff.

A familiar aroma wafted towards me,
As I looked up into blue azure skies,
And far beyond, a golden horizon.
I could barely see the shapes of an old
Man holding a young child’s hand,
The man wore a long white robe
And was smoking a handcrafted
Pipe, and the spiraling smoke from it,
Triggered a memory, who was this man.
He didn’t speak much until
I asked him who the child was, He
Granted us a short encounter
The old man said,
So that you can briefly meet.
Tears rolled down my face
As I took the child
And held him tightly in my arms,
For an everlasting moment, a miracle!
We are your guardian angels he said,
Taking back my bundle of life,
And gradually disappearing with his
Charge, leaving behind a trail of smoke
The aroma of which was distinctly the
Tobacco my father smoked. My father
Holding my child's hand, his grandson
Who died when only five days old,
And whom I had never met,
Celestial beings permitted to appear,
And just as quickly disappear,
Their message I believe, that one day we
Would meet, in the presence of His love
Within the realms of heaven above.
Poem of the Day - 18.9.2021
When your heart touched mine,
There was joy – there was fire, more than just desire,
A promise melted every darkness, erased every shadow,
Taught me that the light could figure out my wants,
Shower me in feelings that remind me…
There is love!
When your soul met mine,
There was a sense of what life is about,
The music that pours out from the clouds,
The beauty beyond the moments that satisfy,
The wonder of a gentle that comes to life inside,
Trembling with poetry that will never die…
This is you and I…
When your spirit stirred my own light,
There was a sense of what it really means to love,
Without a reason – in even the harshest season,
With devotion that never stops believing,
Affection that always feels the sunlight’s gentle…
Peace everlasting…
When you and I came to be, struggling through the reality,
Life that reminds us – the truth will soon find us,
Despite the dreaming that keeps our hearts envisaging,
All the wonder of a lifetime together, the joy that comes from knowing,
Our love is overflowing – our love is always growing….
Together, we’ll always know,
The meaning of love that lasts,
Love that is present and past,
Love that reveals what it means…
To love more than anything!
Together – we’re ever sure that love,
Real love… can even stir up the skies,
With shimmering that never dies,
Sparkling, stars who abide,
Giving every hope inspiration to simply try!
Listen to the voice inside, prompting you to love,
Love that can silence every fear, assuring,
Throughout the years, with this love that is ever here,
Forever a part of the truth that reveals…
Love that keeps two hearts together, forever!
