Along the banks
Of timed wrinkles
Flow meandering tears
Splashing
Into a sea of memories
Salted
With grief and love;
A wordless picture
Screaming the silent joy
Of a God warrior:
Screaming with silent joy,
Yearning becomes sacred
In the love and joy God gives;
Happy is a grieving heart
With a mind always aware:
You left…but are never gone;
The legacy of survival
You bequeathed us…lingers…
Remaining fueled by the flames
Of God’s strength and salvation
Ensuring the fearlessness of it all;
Such are tears of joy…
That you my son, passed our way:
God’s Peace and Love—Time without end.
