For Joann

You've always been more than just a pen,

a light, an AP sister and a very, special friend.

 

Though now you are taking flight

beyond our poetic walls,

no place you go shall be alone,

in our hearts you will always be alive,

regardless of where time's winds

give your wings a reason to fly.

 

Cherished are the thoughts

held in our minds

of each time you dressed us with your verse,

gave that shimmering jewel in your soul

chance to shine into our eyes.

 

Blessed us in all the beauty you possess

shared by pen and passion,

precious glimpses into your world.

 

Upon our lives

have you left the footprints of your spirit,

they will never leave our thoughts,

 

So let us now not say farewell,

nor drink of parting's chalice,

instead to think of some new horizon

where we shall met again,

waiting for the sweet renewal with all you are,

thank you for gracing us

for a while

with all the joy you shared

that gave us so many reasons to smile.

    Tears of sadness fills my soul
    as I think of all those I hurt here
    with my thoughts of leaving

    You a brother but much more
    for you have always been
    one I could talk to
    about anything

    Joann
