requiem (elegy for Tim - 1960-2019)


rest now
even with so so much still
left to do
and see
your way
                bass tones chuckling
and fear assaulting
like fire from above
scorching the way ahead with
fierce rage

rest now from tasks well-done
and a life well-loved
even with all the
G. Timothy quirks
and coming up short
and sadness rising
like a flood through floorboards
soaking shoes

rest now
dear friend
for you will shine
bright chords soaring in our hearts
lingering
so rest now
