GB .... RIP

I tend to feel deeply
I have been told I emote well
that I have good use of the verbal skills that I have aquired
over my many years
I have no issues (now)
of confronting all of the demons that lie in front of me
on my journey through this life

I have been blessed with another chance
pulled from repression
and allowed to dance in the moment
a moment of my choosing and my desire
rather than one selected to best suit others

I have met some incredible people
each with their own special dance
their lights shining ever bright
and their passions radiating from within ...

one such man
passed alone this week ...
his wife was out of town, caring for her mother
this was a man
who always had a smile
perhaps not much money,
but he always had enough ...
he would jump and dance his way over to me
giving the best of hugs,
squeezing me tight so that all the seriousness would be tossed to the wind ...
allowing only happiness and joy to remain
and the opportunity to be silly
and dance to the music
feeling and living de blues ..........

he was too young,
he will always be young
his pony tail boppin'
as he felt the music
course through his veins ...
he knew how to enjoy life
he will be missed ...
