I found her on a rainbow

willyweed

 

Today we lost a young marine
Today I lost a friend

Shot down on the battlefield
In Afghanistan

His choose to serve and he knew
What he might have to do

He took the call to risk it all
And serve his country true

Today he died for all of us
Today I died for you

 

 


I found her on a rainbow
That appeared inside a dream


( Now they say I just died today)
( but it is only now that I have died that I truly feel alive


But I looked into the mirror and O there was nothing there to see

They sat that when one dies his true self                            rises  as he watches from the other said and watched his own spirit rise

for now he is true his makers son 

She took me on a journey
To a place I had never seen

O
We climbed the highest mountains
We waded in cool streams


She gave me hope that I might live again
And learn what true love means

And now I know how precious life is
As painful as it sometimes seems

You have to live in the moment and
You have to chase your dreams

We came to the end of the rainbow
Where I saw no pot of gold

But the spirit of the great I AM
And my immortal soul

And I know that it is death That is the awakening and life I lived

is in truth only but a dream !

      And here I stand corrected I thought I lost you as a reader for good and would never heard for you again as the last of my poems that you read or at least comment you said I am almost to afraid to comment on this poem and now I para ... phase as you slowly loose you mind and then as now you were right? There is some half truths in this and the poem I posted way to early get any reation early for no one read or cared to comment on a writer named willyweed for they thought I was ether to stoned from smoking weed or to high to think straight my first dozen posts or so and I put my best a work forward first I got all of this many people & comments ( comment O some) well I quit the weeds years ago and also quit my gardening for lack of interest of growing a garden just so all I could pull and throw away the only thing ever to grow in a my garden WEEDS the name of my favorite pen was willy I I combined my favorite pet pen with by most dreaded & failed hobby gardening and here I must say you where right in your assessment then as now I feel my grip on sanity getting tighter and my hope of tomorrow is I will it be just a little, just as you of me then I was just waiting for the bus for nutsville just they say of a marine one a nut always a nut I was so sorry Of what I might say to you how you never said a cross word about any bodys work but the as now you concern for me not you and my concern was then and is now for you ? this is a strange world we live it , And I still say sane or not All we all ever need is love and con cern is and offshoot born of love for human being Thank for your concern you were gone but never forgotten my good
      friend and more then fair lady thank for not giving up totally on me stronger day by day one day soon tatally sane WW
