Sir Peters, May You Rest In Peace

Husband. Father. Brother. Grandfather. Great-Grandfather. Friend. Artist. Musician. Gentle-Soul. Warrior. Soldier. Patriot. Mechanic. Good-steward. Humorist. Sir Peters, join with angels as you are welcomed into your new home. Pass gently from this world into a new one and know that you, my dear, have fought the good fight.

Awaiting

The sound that travels beneath your ears
The sound of water, river, brook
The clarity of ocean waves
That smiles as you look down;
If only but to see a glimpse
Of a you that once saw mountains ahead
In a future that looked unending.

The land around is new and fresh
And perhaps unknown at best
The journey winds along a road
That soon shall meet you with rest;
Rest from a long road traveled and crystal-clear air
That will guide you as you walk along.

As light beckons you toward a truth you have dreamed
And wondered with hope and bright gleams
As you join with all angels and history makers
And are welcomed into your new home;
May you smile, on dear sir, with the light of new dreams
And know you have fought hard for this.

And may you rest your young head
In a deep place of dreams
And know that you're a being of love
And feel our hearts as they travel alongside you, love;
For those are the things you may take.

And smile as you pass from this world to another,
And laugh as you're now welcomed home.
