was one of the first poets to comment on my work here on Hello Poetry. He's a fantastic poet and has been a friend. I'm dedicating this poem to him. *SHORES i rise from the limpid waves aqua and sapphire the currents drag at my feet i have stayed on the other shore long only catching glimpses of a far land but now i am close enough to see its sands each grain a diamond sparkling in my mind's eye the sand is diamond the trees emerald the sky opal yet the shores i left behind are familiar and i've stayed there a little while are there familiar faces here also? the waves drag then i see Him His hand beckons on the shore i'm approaching He stands before a multitude of other faces some i recognize comfort comes and acceptance and serenity but He will allow me time time to say goodbye*
