Anniversary...

That day... that moment... when your soul left your body, I knew...
We will no longer walk together along the beach...
and enjoy the sounds of nature around us
enjoying that contented peaceful togetherness.


Many souls joined you that day...
As Hurricane Katrina blew in,my best friend drifted free.
Shall I scream? ...or cry? ...perhaps wring my hands in despair?...
or wallow in the muddy substance of self-pity, mourning my loss?

No! I will celebrate the release of that beautiful soul.....
from your prison of muscle, skin and bone......
to the freedom of God's universe!
