This Gentle Man

I know this man,

not quite as well as many,

there are dozens, that add to the dozens,

the flock of people who know love,

in the heart of this one man.

 

He does love to sing,

she right by his side, their world,

together under the eyes of God,

she shared his spiritual happiness,

in melody, in heart.

 

Today his journey began,

and the wells were opened,

the waters cascade

so that everyone might grieve

the passing of a beautiful man.

 

I know this man clearly through the love,

of his elegant companion, may she find peace.
