When you are free
come visit me
on ponderosa scented wings
with lupine flowers in your hair
on wings and flowers
and a wind both warm and strong.
Come visit me
when you are free
from tireless pain and muscles weak
sad sorrow in your blood and bones
cast off this fate to
come alone without a care.
And though I’ll never see your smile
your eyes your skin and radiant hair
I’ll never hear your voice again
or laugh with you
I’ll know you’re here, I’ll know you’re
here in iridescent spirit soft.
Light as the touch you had in life,
body gone and free to roam
the universe with God
beyond, but wait…
do not escape our common
bond of time and place
To ease into Eternity until, my friend,
you come to me when you are free.
