POETRY  
     
  To A Friend


Wing high, my friend,
like bird that soars
bond-free from earth
catching updrafts to the open skies
quiet halls of heaven
when the world is loud

lean hard, my friend,
on strengths you gained
when Pain became legitimate
breaking thresholds of awareness
Memory unfreezing shards
splintered from some dark event
now sunlit - changed to
Life's mosaic
pieced together not necessarily
by reason
but into pattern that is beautiful
if one looks deep enough

soar high, my friend,
free spanning paths
linking earth to sky
scars to feeling
love to hearts around the circle
that brings

wholeness
