Cloaked in my snow bed
under a blanket of stars
reflecting our love lines
through life's ceremonial scars

You've painted your memory
and saturated my soul
with your spectrum of wisdom
and prophecies left untold

Together we've drawn our altar on land
bent our heads to the heavens
held God in our hands
and bedded with flowers
just as the weeping willow tree
so have we grown roots
in the arms of the sea

We've spoken to tree nymphs
and danced with the rain
screamed alongside the thunder
while she's lamented in vain

Our communion with nature
rituals blending in part
our cherished laugh lines
in the folds of each others hearts

I've spilled my tears at your feet
sorrow sung like biblical psalms
and just like a martyr
you've held my despair in your palms

Cultivated the fire of my faith
and cradled my hope
philosophies fall from your lips
easily spoke

I carry you always
your teachings play like a song
my cerebral architecture will cradle your memory
long after you're gone

So when heaven hearkens for you
the entrails of your song
and bends it's bows to your roots
your memory carries on
because together we've blended two lives intertwined
a memorial of friendship
familial love married with time
