Her Final Flight

I grew up with you, Beautiful Girl...
I have enjoyed the journey with you.
Thank you for your service
and taking us beyond our imaginations

I will remember you always.
From just another Discovery
and space exploration fan.

When you arise in the morning,
think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive -
to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

Just before they go

It is a time like no other.

About to lose someone you love 

who will soon pass from this mortal world.

It's a dusk and it makes you hold your breath...

You keep replaying the tape of times you shared

and those wonderful memories

cause your eyes to swell with tears.

He can no longer take visitors, as he is too weak.

Tho he is still breathing, he is not hungry and

he doesn't have the strength to speak.

I pray you are not suffering, my Friend...

Peace be with you.

Essence

Is it just me or is spring approaching

so quickly that I swear I can smell green

and all of its freshness?

I rather like that I can recall the aura -are your senses working?

Friendship

“Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It’s not something you learn in school. But if you haven’t learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven’t learned anything.”

                                                                                  — Muhammad Ali
