Our haven without ends,
A circle we all call
Our Family of Friends!

This the 3rd part of my Firefly series... i havent finished the 2nd part yet, but this part was dedicated to my grandfather who died this past Easter, and will be read at his funeral tomorrow.  He is who I share my love for writing with... enjoy.

"Release"


As you climb out of the jar, you are free.
All that once confined you vanished in air.
No more pain, no more suffering for thee.
Spread your wings, take off, fly from despair.

Into the heavens, fireflies aware.
A twinkle in the sky marks you were here.
From begin to end, your purpose was known.
In all of our jars, your light surely shown.

This is a very nice tribute write. I agree with Ida about that opening line.
