CareerMysteries

Today I would like to post a poem I wrote called Everlast.  My daughter, Jessica, read this poem at my Dad’s funeral mass and today I post this in his memory. It was beautiful and one of those moments I will never forget. I hope you enjoy this work.

 Everlast

by Therese Haberman
 
Sparkling white prisms dance around me,
Marking scattered moments with random bouts of glee.
Memories spring on fairy knees so lovely and wild,
Shining golden streamers from maypoles of a child.

Deep dreams float feather free.
An ancient stone castle by the gleaming North Sea.
Buoy bells tinkling in a gentle melody.
There forever may you walk beside me.

Now rest your sweet head upon my soft breast.
Sing me to sleep as the last wave meets her crest.
Warm sunshine kisses morning dew from your eyes.
Hold me tight and muffle the everlast of my cries.
