This poet’s book is nigh complete
Apparitions, thoughts replete
Surely chains are burst asunder
Heaven’s flight; past gone under

Take your wing, Immerse the joy
Laughter-dappled prose employ
Sing the wondrous rising crest
Pallet’s colors bright and blest

Scales have fallen, sweet vision found
Chiming hallowed strings resound
Forthwith hath been lifted up
Liquid gold doth fill this cup

Glad and grateful evermore
Glory’s path to heaven’s door
Once was bound by earthly bond
Fly now, freely, homeward; - Gone.
