I Have Ran With The Wind
I can now lay my weary soul to rest
Hear the thunder of my feet as my tears in remembrance, eyes have silently wept
I was one with the wind my trail of glory in every breath living my passion with a smile
My sweat, my thrive in every accumulating mile
I soared in freedom as my heart and mind to Mother Earth I once beautifully commend
My blood spillage unto gun fire, tears unto those left behind, whereas, my absence I can never blend into humanity again
At peace in the cradle of God’s plan, the will to choose thy path given to every man
I go now, justice for my bereavement has been done
Know that my Kingdom as I look down has come
Close your eyes, and feel my soft breeze as I pass you when you walk into the warmth of the sun
In dedication to Ahmaud Arbery
RIP

Thank you, my handsome poet, this was personal and emotional to write. I am an avid marathon runner and I could not begin to fathom what this gentleman must have endured during that horrific and deadly encounter. therefore, i thought I will give him his proper respect by a spoken word piece posted on here and then a poetic eulogy
Have a blessed Friday ...

Thank you, my true friend, for adding your intellect on this piece and you are correct, all three guilty. Prayers does work. However, I still must take into consideration now one truly wins, you have a soul six feet under, and three guilty men sitting behind bars. if only those three had the common sense to think.
That brings me to the point, we must always think before we act, or prepare to face the aftermath of the consequences.
Have a great week and be safe out there...

Re. I Have Ran With The Wind
More truer words for those whom need justice in this strange world where justice peeks from up under her blindfold.

Thank goodness the laws of humanity and balancing those scales peeked and exposed the racial injustice whereas, to give this family justice and then closure.
I could only imagine what these parents and family members must have gone through in hoping, praying justice would prevail

As long as the men like those convicted are unafraid to kill men like Ahmaud, there is no real justice

My Melanin King, we must learn in the unfairness practice of impartiality when it pertains to the laws of blind justice to celebrate one victory, one hurdle at a time.
I can only say I can sleep better at night knowing the voices of justice have spoken and rendered in the favor of granting punishment as so, to do the crime you must do the time
Please continue to enjoy your forwarding week and be safe in you daily roaming...
