Oh Bob,
a fallen comrade…..
“Fallen?”
How can I say “fallen”?
Rather saved,
transitioned,
gone to the light,
moved beyond
this mortal coil.
And for you, Bob,
“How is it?”
You who loved school,
and learning,
accomplished with degrees.
Have you already signed up
for your next courses?
Is it what you expected?
Our ribbons of prayers
coil their way up to your spirit,
as you look back with pride
at all the searching
and giving
you accomplished
in your 64 years here.
May your soul
thrive forward
in this new school.

a high school friend who just "passed over".
