Elegy-Friendship

He was a person with all goods and praise

Always the one I could lean on the most,

Share my thoughts and trust against

But that I did not know until this time

Thankful as I am for all memories

we shared, and although still sorrowful

You will never disappear from our hearts

Goodbye, though now I am able to let you go.

I can still hear your laughs and whispers

But now they say to keep on moving through

I have no idea of what to do

Because your voice melts back into the walls

I still cannot bear that you are now gone

Into the arms of heaven and the Lord

Among us you will always take your place

Farewell, you will never be forgotten.

Ode-Friendship

Ode to my friends who sketch my smiles and laughs

And side by side walk through lightning and storms

Until they lead my path through brightened days

Ode to my dear grateful memories

My most valuable and importance of all

Who shout encouragements and yank my hand

They are the cherry tops of my life

Ode to my dear wonderful leaning poles

Changes and influence toward myself

Maybe some I may regret on

But these I carelessly say or reflect on

For, ode to my dear lovely friends

Ballad-Mother to Daughter Relationship

BEHIND BARS; SEPARATED

She sat in her high-back wheeled chair

A white board resting above her knees

Head tilted to the left, thoughts unclear,

And rocking about, back and forth, back and forth,

Impatiently.

The silent atmosphere consumed the stay.

Thursday afternoon of early December, it was,

And on her white board small sheets lay

Happy. Sad. Scared. Anxious. Exited.

It says.

I ask, “how do you feel,

About your children coming to visit?”

Her eyes, gray and worn, signals toward the word

“happy,”

a second past by, her thoughts shifted

“sad,” her eyes casted.

“Did you mean happy and sad?”

She blinks,

her eyes tell me a whole different story.

Only once she had held them in her arms,

Her own children,

and only once she had heard their breath

Since the day her triplets were born.

Tragedy. Oxygen loss

Divorced and locked, her love,

In an angry struggle over their children

They had once dreamed and prayed of

Now all have disappeared,

Beyond her sight.

Lost and trapped in her body

She can only blink;

Motionless, she fights alone

to see her children once again.

Her name,

Abbie Dorn.

THANK YOU

             

Pictures after pictures of us too

Waving at the camera.

We were at a theme park

And I had forgotten my lunch sack.

Thank you for sharing such memories.

At your sleep over party

We slept horizontally on the bed

In the morning to realize

That I taken all your blanket

Thank you for your warmth.

My apartment,

5 minute walk away from yours.

And even when you moved to another continent

Your house,

 5 minute drive away from mine.

I followed your steps.

Thank you for guiding me.

Our bond is like a rope

That can never be untied.

And because you are leaving

I say this one more time

Thank you.
