FOR MIKE
(July 28, 1956 - April 22, 2001)
UPWARD, UPWARD, UPWARD I will be here... My memories of yesterday
that is my prayer for you.
Far from this pain you had on Mother Earth.
Be careful my love,
take care not to burn your new found wings
that you earned in such a costly way.
carrying on and knowing that at day's end
you will meet me
just on the other side of the rainbow.
Until that time comes,
I will go on loving you....
As each day becomes tomorrow...
I can tell you...
In all my tomorrows I will love you....
and in the gift of the present of today
my love for the amber that you have become
will shine brightly.
will carry me through
until I fly free with you my precious love.
You were more to me than life itself....
Now, as I recall our last conversation.....I cry...
just wishing I could have known....
someway, that I could have known....
my darling....fly high.....
and know that you carry my love with you.....
How I long for you....
I will tell our story someday....
but for now,
I just want to know
you are flying to the source of all life...
and soon, very soon
it will come my time to join you....
and be free with you
in the land of the golden eternal sunland....
where our love will shine for all eternity...
a united light of love that we are....
and now thanks to you
I know that not even death
can devour this glorious love
by death's insidious pain.
