Ode to Sir Paul Reeves v2
What a magnificent servant you were,
serving God and man in plight,
Nothing but your quiet demeanor to disarm
the most cantankerous and disagreeable alike.
You served the church, a beacon in the storm,
Your gentle voice is a balm to every soul.
You served the public, a master of your art,
Your legacy is a garden where compassion grows.

HUBERT REEVES
May we be blessed to understand
The words of Hubert Reeves…
a famous Canadian Astrophysicist…
allow me paraphrase what he believes:
We are a most insane species…
(he writes so beautifully)
we worships invisible gods
while destroying a nature we can see…
Unaware that the nature we’re destroying…
(so indiscriminately)
is the very God we’re worshiping…
the one we cannot see.

Keanu Reeves
I have never met Keanu Reeves
Never heard his real time voice
I don’t know how his mind works
Never felt an impact of his choice.
Yet I often read the words he writes
Which fill my eyes with tears
For his words so charged with meaning
Articulate struggle hurt and fears.
My heart’s been broken many times
By men of lesser grain
Who

Keanu Reeves, a Saint
Keanu in Hawaiian means “cool breeze over the mountains"
This man is a saint, he stands alone without question
Gives millions without recognition
A true martyr by any definition
Helps cancer research, without attaching his name to his donations
An extraordinary Canadian!

What a magnificent servant you were
Serving God
And serving Man in plight
Nothing but your quite demeanour
To disarm the most cantankerous and disagreeable alike
You served the Church
You served the public
You live to serve and thought nothing of it
Now your bright spark has vanquished
And only a memory of you remain
Recalling what you have done
