Kanvhwiya for Frank

An old man

ha!

That might

be 

the state

of your

canoo,

Dear One,

yet

it could not be

further

from

the truth.

You shine.

Your glimmer.

You thrum with

an energy

deeper

than

yourself.

You heal.

You reach,

you seek

to understand

to grow

to nurture.

You are a

blessing

unto

us all

my 

kin.

And this

is a 

reminder

of your

greatness

and 

humility.

We will

all die,

for none

escape this

life

while living,

yet

few would

have lived

as 

gloriously

as you.

Emparting one’s gifts

freely

is the legacy

of the

truly

magnificent.
