Remebering Cornelius

I've attempted to place this up for a month now and it is one of the hardest things I do tonight. Cornelius, my mentor, and spiritual friend died last month. He leaves behind a magnitude of wealth in friends and family. It's very hard to be selfish and wish him to live when he's walked a path of our Creator's map for him and never hesitated making the right turns. He is loved and missed. Those of us in his large circle are thankful for his touch.

I came here to Muse the day
With a heart still on the mend
I walked away feeling special
I found a forever friend
Someone who is much like me
With light aglow inside
A person of relevance
Dignity and pride.

Cornelius is this you?
Acts Chapter 10
Am I there too?
Is destiny forgiving
Is the crossroads here at hand
Or is this delusional
In a spirit ever grand?

Then why can’t I be
Just where you are now?
Is it trespassing
To ease a troubled frown
This friendship is history
When recalling greets our passion
Familiar is just a word
It’s definition lacking.


Friendship is forever
For spirits such as WE
No death or pain and sorrow
When we simple choose
BELIEVE!
Cornelius you are welcome
Here within my shine
For here is where you left me

Once upon a time.

Susan, a great tribute to your wonderful friend, loss can be heavy on the heart and especially when it is a friend who is so much like yourself. His spirit will live in your memory forever and each time that memory appears hold onto it like you've received the greatest gift ever. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this adjustment period. God Bless.
