He's always spiritually there it seems; dance me an alabaster moonbeam dream!

Michael James Bradley
(October 9, 195- June 26, -2012)
 
Four years! Michael! Me boy! Wow!
 
We sure enough had us some grand times.
I miss our conversations, Mon Amie!
 
To call your intellect Genius, which I often
told you was my considered conclusion,
fell far short of the mark. You were a God-send!
Our seventeen year “Spiritual” relationship
 spanned a period-of-enlightenment for me;
if I somehow contributed to your educational
enhancement through humble understanding, I am
thankful and appreciative for that blessing, also.
 
A “strange” friendship, I reckon.
The “City-boy” and a “Country-bumpkin”.
Still, your urbane sophistication and my
Pragmatic-“Traditionalism” meshed well.
Your vast Bible-Knowledge answered myriad queries
for me through your “knowing” interpretations of
Spiritual dimensions in the supernatural.
Thank you! Mon Amie!
 
Many times since your untimely departure,
I have longed for your insightful perspicacity;
often, I lament: I wish I could call Michael.
 
We had a “deal” that you would let me know
where you are; you agreed with a codicil: “If I can?”
You always were smarter than I!
I guess our desires are, indeed, subordinate
to the Master’s plan!? I reverently Honor
life’s conclusion with Humble acceptance.
 
My intent remains the same: Truth!
My purpose seeks: Simple Happiness!
In Honor of your memory, I live---both!
Michael is forever in my heart, mind, spirit.
 
Amen!
 
Merci! My dear friend! Rest in Peace!
