Poetry
Till We Fly Above The Moon
(For Grandpa Wells)
A day of sadness
A day of tears
A day we remember all the years
How you taught us about God,
His love, His grace
How you showed us His light,
by the shining smile on your face.
We love you grandpa.
We always will
With joyous memories,
out hearts will fill.
With our hope in God,
our eyes on Him,
we will rejoice
for a life well- lived.
Today, we say goodbye for now
knowing we will see you soon...
when it is finally our souls' turn
to fly so high,
Above the Moon.
The Critique
They
Judge
Us.
Critical whispers
smear my power,
now between we & dream
Her anxiety?
Wild
Panicked
Loud!
A dark time
For her
(vomit, dread)
Her results?
a sweet symphony
enormous Joy
Embrace & Celebrate
Delicious eruption
Dizzy fun
Every moment remembered
like a love song.
this girl
now smiling
She is me.
When The Sun Shines Forever
(For Grandpa Cutler)
The sun is shining on this hard day
You would have liked it that way
The feelings are heavy on this sunny day
You would have made us laugh with what you'd say
I love you more than I thought I could
I miss you like I thought I would
I never thought it would be this hard
to let down my outer guard.
I promise to keep washing my ears
I thank you for all my years
Every single lesson I learned
Every single memory I earned.
I love you so much
I know you loved me just as such
Goodbye for now, Grandpa.
I'll see you when the Sun Shines Forever.
A Room Full of Dreams
In a room full of dreams,
I'm not alone it seems.
In a room full of memories,
I can feel my regrets.
In a room full of secrets,
I can feel my weakness.
I can feel who I was
and who I wanted to be.
In a room full of dreams,
I can feel her hope.
In a room full of memories,
I can feel her mistakes.
In a room full of secrets,
I can feel her fears.
I can feel that little girl.
and she's proud of me.
I'm not alone it seems,
In this room full of Dreams.
