illuminated
darkness gives way to holy
swimming in the light
dearest friend,
how i savor each note of your glory song.
all your warmth and beauty calls me out
into the gathering light.
i am swept away at your profound beauty,
your innate ability to pluck the seeds of hope
from the enormity of life.
it is the way of things;
darkness finally giving way to our holy
longing for clarity and light.
how you stirred so wildly the passion to let loose-
bursting our hearts in a crush of blooming;
spreading your love
across the universe.
thank you friend
for propping us up in your eternal welcoming.
for placing bright cups of happiness
on the footpaths of life.
for your laughter, your smile, your warmest embrace.
and in your final hour for
teaching us to fall gracefully
like so many spent petals
in the great current of
love.

for vickie
my dearest kindest most generous friend
you will live on in so many hearts
and each bright blooming flower
xo

Vickie was such a lovely person, because of you I got to spend that glorious time together with her in SMDA that I will always treasure. Such a loss for you Rebecca and all who knew and loved her. May love hold you gently. Thank you for this post and remembrance as we all swim towards the light... XO
