to My Friend, Frank - - for His Beloved Merrie Speak my name, I pray thee rise from this Life of Death to touch my hand, my lips, my soul and feel the warmth - of living Love Speak my name, I pray thee as choirs echo from Heaven's Gate and see us shine, as trembling stars glowing from the night above Speak my name, I pray thee sweet breath return - Return! And fill this precious body soft to quiver the heart of this sweet dove Speak my name, I pray thee do not leave me here - alone to grieve for you forevermore to curse this warmth - of living Love Speak my name, I pray thee Speak my name c1997 Thomas Lee Rhymes - written 02/04/97
Reason for writing:
Soon, my friend's wife will be taken from him by AIDS. I will
miss his laughter and his humor - until Time allows his pain to heal.
