All (for Parker)

I wish

That I

Might’ve known

You then

But since

I know

You now

Then I

Must’ve known

You then

Because now

I know

All parts

Of you

BeThere (to Hung)

And simply

Because I

Showed kindness

In a

World of

Despair a

Gift was

Bestowed upon

Me in

The form

Of a

Prayer it

Said be

Light be

Aware and

Always always

Be there

Rare

The same

Pressures that

Surround us

Are the

Same pressures

That caused

Us to

Be rare

HappySorrow (to Rare)

We often

Think that

Life is

Meant to

Make us

Better that

Somehow if

We pay

The dues

We’ll be

Happy what

If we’re

Already happy

And instead

Learn sorrow

For it’s

There and

Only there

Filled with

Sorrow that

We understand

What it

Means to

Be truly

Human beings

Quest (to Rare)

Quest upon

Accepting one

You’re told

The outcome

It becomes

An adventure

Only upon

Beginning and

Becomes a

Success not

When you

Achieve the

Prize but

Rather when

You assimilate

All the

Pieces gathered

Along the

Way so

Is love

And life

My dear

Dear friends
