This knight

Summoned, chosen

By the light of the moon

Knows chivalry does not falter

Nor die

***

Instead

His mighty stance

Shows determination

Dauntless, he and his loyal steed

Trust faith

In Loving Memory of John Freda 1968-2020


You left
Before I
Could say goodbye
I sit
And can’t help
But wonder why

You were taken
So soon
From us, away
Though
In our hearts
You’ll forever stay

I loved
Your kindness
Your gentle soul
But, alas,
Your absence
Will take its toll

On so many,
Who will never know
Your spirit
Or the sound
Of your laughter,
I can still hear it

A man
Who cared
For so many, but he
“Reach out,
I’m here,
If you ever need me”

A phrase
He would say to me,
Again & again
He’d listen,
And comfort,
And never complain

John,
You were truly
A wonderful friend
And
To our Alyssa,
You were a godsend

Now
You’re an angel,
In Heaven above
At peace
With our Lord,
Embraced in His love.

The Hands of the Devil – #NaPoWriMo

In the twilight hours, when madness sets in
And the darkness engulfs you, when terror begins

Blurred in reality, a turn of events
Nothing around you makes any sense

Longing for sanity to visit again
Never really knowing where it has been

Torturing dreams that fly through the night
Grasping and grabbing, in torrid delight

Cause you to stumble, turn away from the real
In the hands of the devil, your soul, his steal.
