Tomorrow is near
Scared of a new day coming
Don't know what I'll do

Silence can be loud
Noises can be magnified
Heard for the first time

Given a new day
Can make it
A Prayer
Let it give
Fruit
Can destroy it
And let it decay
Up to me
To dance with
Amen

We laugh we grieve
Of times together
Shared
Sadness Joy
Appearing on the surface
Disappearing into our hearts
Memories we shared
Are gone forever
Buried into the soil
All we share now
Is a glimpse of the heart
A whisper of a Prayer
What was
Is Gone
What is
Here to stay

As we remember
To shop for
A special bargain
Let us not forget
To remember
Our Veterans
Who fought and
Died for us

Don't sugar coat
Your words
For me
Just give me
The rotten
Truth
Something to
Chew on
And throw away

Oh to have
One last chance
To smell cut grass
The rain
Coming in
To finish a poem
Or read a book
To chew not swallow
Food
Take in smells
Like never before
And see
Really see
All that is around
Play games
Revisit childhood
Games
Board games
Made up games
Card games
Journey with others in their happiness
Or sadness
Singing dancing
Shouting
Praising
Oh another chance
To Celebrate
Really celebrate
A New day
Greatful to be
Alive
To move and breathe
To acknowledge
And
Just Be
