Yesterday I saw your smile,
In the blue sky,
You shone bright
at first dawn's light
I heard your laughter,
Echo through the walls of my home
As my son laughed out loud alone.
Today, I saw you fly
As eagle
In the sky
Looking down
Without a word or a sound
The nearness of you
I knew
As he flew.
I heard you whistle outside
As you did when I was a child
But to my surprise
It was a bird outside
Without hesitation
Or fear.
The bird came near.
I saw you last night
As a shooting star
Rainbows of light.
Burst in flames
In your flight
You were on
your journey
To eternity

God is constant.
Man is faithful or fickle.
Harvest will come
Then He puts in the sickle.
God is immortal,
So is man's soul,
Given
Time labours on, as do I.
Senseless fool, I wonder why
To dark seduction, I made reply,
By forfeit of my right to die!
