"Touch The Sky"

Touch the sky
just once, for me,
Now that you
are flying free.
Touch the sky
and let God know,
I miss you
on Earth, below.
Touch the sky
you've touched my heart,
Your passing
ripped me apart.
Touch the sky
and help me find
Peace and rest,
please calm my mind.
Touch the sky
and ease the grief,
I'm so sad...
your life, too brief.
Touch the sky
and send a Light,
let me see
your star, tonight.
Touch the sky
just once, for me,
Now that you
are flying free.

(C) Copy written, 2002/Revised, 2004, by Karla Dorman.

Karla, my dear, you have given the victims something no other poem I've read has... a dignity and joy of release, something we are all trying to capture in life. Your voice in this marvelous, bittersweet piece has given me my first opportunity to soar today... you did them proud, as you do for us so often. Thank you for speaking from your heart and in doing so, from so many of ours as well. This is beyond sublime.. katy xox.
