TheForest (to boo)

~ Harlan Didrickson

And so and

Yes your life

Has blossomed like

Springs fields and

All about you

Buzz bumblebees and

Fireflies and freshly

Minted lovers snatching

You quickly for

Their bouquet but

Me I am

The willow at

The glens edge

Standing as I

Have for years

Whispering the song

Of wind and

Lullabies shading lazy

Summer afternoon dreamers

And tickling wayward

Boaters don’t think

That I don’t

See you there

But my blossom

You’re there to

Give hope while

I’m here to

Give age it’s

We that makes

Them forget about

Themselves and think

Only of us

EqualParts (to boo)

~ Harlan Didrickson

How do I

Know you ask

Simple when I

Hold you I

Feel whole complete

Absent of absence

Thinking when I

Think I think

Of you and

When I’m not

Thinking of you

I’m simply wondering

You do see

Now that you

Have become as

Much a part

Of me as I

have become a

Part of you

Noah (for boo)

~ Harlan Didrickson

And from a

Farm I was

Plucked by two

Loving hands and

Cradled knowing that

I’d miss my

Family but certain

I found a

New one with

You thank you

Boo for taking

Me happily home

FreeMan (too boo)

~ Harlan Didrickson

And just when

Being walked to

The gallows a

Light breaks clouds

And shines truth

It stayed execution

The generosity that

Love is triumphs

Adversity immediacy temptation

I’ve always had

Faith in love

You did too

Come back into

My arms now

A free man

Memories (to boo)

~ Harlan Didrickson

Like hand me

Downs that are

Thread bare and

Worn it’s clear

To me that

You’ve outgrown me

Now like a

Pair of skates

Or your dog

I wait patiently

In the mud

Room for that

One simple chance

That we might

Play and bark

And ooo and

Ahh again to

At last feel

The wind and

Smell the breezes

But alas we

Won’t you won’t

And neither will

I because something

Prettier newer less

Clunky has caught

Your eye but

Don’t forget where

You put me

There in your

Oh so very

Young cherished memories
