i guess i have to go now
it was a pleasure meeting you if
only through letters and gigabytes
warm eyes warm smile and so much gratitude
i would have been honored to call you mother
Poetess you were a friend in spirit
you go join your loved ones and rest
write along the angels can you hear
the music of the celestial orbs
when i close my eyes shut tight
on a high rise rooftop in the fancy
part of my city i can hear it
and i dream of holding Shakespeare’s quill
perhaps Helene you can get his autograph for me
and send it on the feather of a swan
i guess i have to go now
and as you soar through the beautiful skies
you will now know all mystery
beautiful artist sweet kind friend
you leave us here where life is sometimes a game
we laugh or we cry but we are just human
be it not for souls full of light like you
who’ve touched my heart
one could say life would be intolerable
It appears like an elegy. A tone of bereavement. Beautifully structured poem. Enjoyed reading this work.😍💞👍

Such a beautiful tribute. And I love this line:
“we laugh or we cry but we are just human” Very true and the one we admired or respected so much has left us but we shall never forget them. In our hearts they live and shall be missed.
