My heart is sad

Thank you for all the moments we shared

They will forever stay in my heart

I hadn't seen you for four months

I had the feeling you had passed away suddenly

I had that confirmed for me over the weekend

Fly high my friend

Rest easy now

Thank you for visiting me in spirit too

I am guessing you were around 75 years years old

I noticed how dapper you were - well dressed

Your shirt freshly pressed every Saturday morning

If a man could be elegant- that was you

You wanted to stand beside me

Not opposite me

It was less confronting

You spoke of your wife

I noticed how quietly you spoke

I never asked questions much about you

It was mostly me listening

I enjoyed that

I felt as though you had probably been a very good lawyer

in the big city just south of us

Visiting your beach house most weekends

and walking the markets

For me it was listening to your stories of experiencing spirit

I knew you hadn't been able to share these freely with just anybody

Everytime I had the pleasure of standing with you

You would say I believe in your work

Then you would smile at me

Sharing your many stories of your own experiences of spirit

You enjoyed being listened too , heard, believed and acknowledged

You often spoke of coming to see me and having a session

I would always answer with

No need we can just stand here and talk

You would smile again and keep talking

There we were normalising speaking about spirit

You liked that

and so did I

Again thank you sweet man for the magical moments that we shared.
