into

a world

of hurt

changing guards

sad ceremony

in fulfilling

one’s celebration

ashes

to ashes

dust

into despair

the morbidities

of full circle

the ancients

teach

in oneness

the power

of the spirit

the evolution

of family

friends

future

don’t count

the toes

or fingers

measure

the good

in kindness

peace

love

and the sanctuary

of independence

in a discipline

of daily bread

fresh fruits

and the ability

to plant seeds

of many crops

both intellectual

and physical

nurture

in clean water

tears of emotions

that hydrate

the cells

in combination

of a bird’s

flight

to defy

the grounding force

and still

prosper

in the travels

of ingenuity

create integrity

the landscape

of dreams

build

the shelter

durable

in a creative

comfort

to thrive

and flourish

abound

as eagles

defy

the science

of man’s

arrogance

nature provides

the mysteries

the wonder

the possibilities

abound

speak

no ill

of those

already gone

rejoice

in the respect

and honor

of their service

we all deserve

as such

all being

servants

into

a world

of hurt

changing guards

sad ceremony
