For Danny
Boy
Mother Earth heaved a heartbroken sigh As his last breath disappeared into the wind, Brushing past star after star. Even the Moon shed a tear. And the Sun rose, reluctantly To cast morning rays, To bring the dawn of a day without his light. Ebb and flow came to a halt. As the trees wept, the river slowed To pay homage to his young, taken soul His body, left to the mercy of crashing waves Vanished at high tide, Leaving only a faint, far-off laughter. Fading memories, treasured dreams. And now, only in the heart of the ocean, Does his spirit remain. As Mother Earth heaved a sigh On the lonely night of his departure.
