REMEMBRANCE of EASTER 2005

Crowd my eyes, you bevies of daffodils,
And you forsythias in throngs of cheer,
Dandelion galaxies and fountains of trees.
Fill my mouth with the breath of hyacinths, you purple air
And you roistering breeze.

And you quince-buds so eager, you swelling seeds,
You squirrels running stitches across the loom
Of woven grasses, inflorescent weeds;
Jasmine-bush, loop me with your lariats of perfume.
Fill me, small birds, with your versicles,
And chuckled replies.

She is bleeding from the mouth and eyes.
Sate me then, Sun, all dapple and spangle
Crowd out all else
Lade me and load me, you skies
With blessings of warmth and breath
Let me see nothing else
But everything springing and skyey.

From the mouth and eyes.


for Terri Schindler Schiavo

I’ll never forget Terri, her family, nor those few who were willing to stand up for her and speak for her when she could not do it for herself.

You are at peace in Heaven, Terri. We fought for you and were left brokenhearted. We will remember you always.

All those in Congress who voted for DeathCare voted to allow Big Brother the power over end of life care for We The People. In other words, families will be denied these choices. Elitists in DC have declared that they know better than you and I.

Liberal Elitists Hussein Obama, Plugs Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Dingy Harry Reid et al. voted to declare Big Brother the ultimate power over who lives and who dies via their Death Panels and rationed care.

John Boehner promised We The People that he would lead the charge to repeal this outrage. So far, he’s all talk, IMO.

Prayers to the Schiavo Family as they witnessed the murder of their daughter, sister, and friend. She is now with Jesus who suffered a horrible murder as well.

Beautiful remembrance. Thank you.

Six years now since this beautiful person left us, at the hands of cruel and heartless men, supported by an ugly and monstrous legal system.
