Glory
Darkness engulfed the day with looming like night,
solemn remembrance - from beginning to end
Lies the dawn that showered all with purest light,
morning's misting kiss blown to a parting wind
Brightest shimmer from sun faded to gray,
all morrows forthwith - 'neath lusterless skies
Upon pursed lips moist dew becomes sprinkled clay,
the stirring breezes echo our tearful sighs
Assorted flowers align the parlor's wall,
a façade of beauty, 'till stems and petals dry
Sums of which we are - then death comes to call,
seen shades at a wake, but true blossoms never die
*********************************************
Kindred to whispers from an angel's heart,
blessings of virtue leads final journey's way
Paradise within sight - hallowed souls depart,
new faces for Heaven - gifted eternal stay
Lasting touch of kindness adorned with a smile,
cherished thoughts held dear - forever about you
Taken too soon - but a life so worthwhile,
still striving to follow the glory we knew
