PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

If I am to reflect on the lifetimes I've lived

between now and the days that fell in between

then I could tell stories of vampires and snakes

and also stories of mushroom cakes

Though I never ate one of those

I still have one in my pouch you know

Well actually it's only a chocolate piece

which I was paid with for cleaning a tree

I've been blessed on this journey of mine

meeting and making new friends all the time

I met some sisters who tickle my bones

and went to the ocean to wash out my toes

A man I met, helped me skin my drum

and that in it self was so much fun

but today, I am saddened by news that I heard

and wishing I'd written encouraging words

but all I can do now is sit here and write

a few words to honor a friend who took flight
