Can you feel it?
Just a bit more gentleness
A bit more kindness
A bit more stubbornness
Released from failing flesh
To fall
Like a soft steady downpour
Over our parched world.
Gordon and Ernie
Brothers-in-law
Brothers in death
Brothers in gentleness
And in stubbornness.
Bodies die.
Love lingers…
And spreads

I’m so sorry to hear of Ernie’s passing. He had such a troublesome time with his health in life. Of course I always think of Gordon whenever I think of Jessie’s wedding in 2003. 😔 Happy times, sad times.
You certainly are talented the way you can put your thoughts and feelings into such meaningful words. 💕
