You’ll live forever…xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

every passing has once lasted for a while…

at times unnoticed, as if none of what went down
was someone’s need, but evenso a leaping image

leaving stigma’s on a retina, a ballroom floor

a flaccid…flinching older face…

rolling water is evaporating artlessly…

returns from all of heaven, softly whispers

‘long low riverbanks and shivers

in the deepcold of the night…

it’s grinding grooves in sleeping rocks

absorbing silence, changing colours

mystifying fairywinks and light… 

every sound that has been heard

bleeds into emptiness and space…

a spoken elegy, a prayer or the moving

mellow melody of tender Aprilrain…

a cry of sadness, hidden fear or heavy pain…                           

beyond closed lashes thoughts are floating

o’er the valleys of the mind…they are the sacred

ones your spirit let me keep here in my haven…

those that granted me mere peace, while

I was little, frightened and displaced…

oh, they shall never go to waste, my friend…

I’ll carry them around each bend in time

and they shall interlace my poetry

my bashful whirling artwork and my rhyme…

every passing has once lasted for a while…

you’ll live forever in my eyes, my friend

forever in my heart, my soul, my smile…
