a wide brimmed hat
to sails out of the past
heading home to capture
majik that was cast
out among the dragons
soaring on white fire
crimson wings
hide sabered claws
raise the funeral pyre
blue ice burns hot lungs
releasing rabid tongues
spilling incantations
from a poison cage
forged with righteous hands
to seal the maker’s rage
valiant winds will blow this day
guiding ships into the morrow
stars will rise
and realize
what’s left behind
is sorrow

I so love the end of this dear one – the flow of it, and in a way the resignation of it. Sorrow is not such a bad thing – it sails away too on ships that carry cargoes of light and love to different ports and gets tossed overboard when the time is right as “ballast” we no longer need to weigh us down. Your gift for poetic images just continues to grow as you share more and more of the beautiful, thoughtful person you are with all of us. Love you sweet man.
butchart replied
