In Heaven

ByRick Ellsmore

I left work early

Rushing towards

Offering hugs

Allowing tears

With permission

Spending our time

Together

Lots of raw

Emotions

Honestly felt

No darkness

In her passing

Understanding A.M.

Walked through

The veil

Understanding her

Torment

Feeling its weight

And cost

It was time

Time for her

To walk the trail

With her sister

Her mother

She is

At peace

Those left behind

Are at peace

Those she joined

Are at peace

The Great Spirit

The Almighty Universe

Is at peace

I am

At peace

As well

These are

My people

My blood

The most loving

Kind and gentle

Energied souls

My weary

Traveling heart

Has encountered

She, the one

Is the leader

Even though

The baby

Of this tribe

She leads

Guiding others

Walking beside

The most in pain

Downtrodden

She is to be

Honored

Appreciated

Celebrated

High Priestess

She is a dragonfly

FREE

Is her name

Kind and gentle

Fierce when needed

Protecting her cubs

Family

When needed

So much beauty

In one tiny

Bold frame

So much strength

Encapsulated in one

So young

So much courage

Thriving inward

She is a lioness

Roaring from

Within

    ByRick Ellsmore

    I’m working on homes Where most often The old oak floors Are stripped, sealed And gorgeously refinished It’s a fun process To see take place Painstaking time and energy Is put into Pulling out all Of the old stains Scratches and wear Meticulous sanding Back and forth The grit getting Finer and finer Funny thing…
