Final Ceremony
beaten rivers always flow
tears have clothed the waterbed
you were here not long ago
not long enough to be dead
gazing into blackened pools
I whisper as I reflect
are you trapped behind the glass?
are you where my tears collect?
humbling past opens my mind
revisit my aching soul
cannot stop the waterfall
death’s rivers I can’t control
final ceremony
I know you will come again
you are a kaleidoscope
when will you come again
tears have clothed the waterbed
you were here not long ago
not long enough to be dead
gazing into blackened pools
I whisper as I reflect
are you trapped behind the glass?
are you where my tears collect?
humbling past opens my mind
revisit my aching soul
cannot stop the waterfall
death’s rivers I can’t control
final ceremony
I know you will come again
you are a kaleidoscope
when will you come again

Congratulations, TravelingFairyPerson! I thought you were going to miss the ship sailing this year, but you boarded in plenty of time! Your offerings were a diverse and varied depiction of life as you've experienced it. I've enjoyed reading you, and observing how much you've grown since last year ( and the year before that ).
Happy to have you back on board and look forward to 20/20!
