'You Belong To Me'

Kurt Philip Behm

“Dear Kurt

 

“It’s Patsy calling

this afternoon

I’m looking so forward

to seeing you soon

 

“The cloud next to mine

is now empty and free

Your wish was to someday

 be right next to me

 

“In heaven everyone

sings like an angel

Harmony waits

 our voices enabled

 

“This spot will stay open

till you call me back

Saint Peter’s inquiring

I’ll keep him on track

 

“I’ve heard your kind prayers

to the Lord for my soul

And thankful for every

new blessing extolled

 

(IMAGINE)

 

“A songstress and poet

in joyous refrain

Forever a duo

— as heaven ordains”

  

(From Patsy Cline: May, 2026)

    Kurt, this is deeply tender. The imagined voice of Patsy carries such warmth and gentleness that the whole poem feels comforting rather than mournful. Beautiful tribute, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
