For Chris

Feet bobbing

Seeking ground

The old scarred bench in-between.

Spirit soaring

Beyond the trees

Beyond the parkway

To the river

Becoming a fish with King Arthur

Transported by Merlin Magic

To the kingdom of freedom.

Walking on Water

Embracing the spirit

Of Christ

Of Yaweh

Of Buddha

Of Mohammed

Of Ishmael

Of Adam

Returning, you will say

“ I have been where rivers run free

I will not be captured by men and ideas that slay my spirit.

I will lead all humans

To the core of their hearts

Together

We will share the golden spirit

Of loving one another.”
