Michael's Smile |

These are the jewels of the mind: Memories. In solitary blackness, the burning of a single Light, images seared into the heart; this is Michael's smile, a shimmering corona of an eclipsed sun. On a lonely night, shaded landscapes lunge to life, in his verses sung from his sister's sweet voice. A quasar pierces it's response, "I am remembered!" This is the realm of his mother's love. Full of God's sparkle in his valentine grin., An uneven halo sailing above the moon: his star the one he sang to as a boy. This light shines for as long as his brothers' sons and daughters carry the light. These are the gifts of the spirit: In the aquamarine morning, a last glimmering star. As it fades in the glare of the Winter's rising sun, A bell licks out it's loneliness on the canyon, Michael smiles again. And says, " I am Remembered!" Jan 24, 2003 Michael, loved brother, son, uncle, friend, died of AIDS, his mother, Patricia, wishes support for AIDS research and keeping his name from being forgotten.

So sad. Bows head, and prays...I sense all who knew him ..their lives were richer for having known him. My heart goes out to his mother. Send her all good thoughts, and best of love from SharaRose in Texas. Love, Terri~ [This message has been edited by SharaRose (12-01-2003 07:31 PM).] |

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Jesse, I am so sorry of your brothers passing seven years ago, dearest friend, I just read your memorial page and know with all your golden heart Michael won't be forgotten and I wish you and all your loved ones the best in promoting your support and prayers for other HIV and AIDS victims and that together we can find a cure, and with the spirit of Michael faith exists! (sad sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, you are in my thoughts and prayers as all children worldwide are, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jesse, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |

Thank you Nancy, Terri, Noah and Marge. Patricia and Patty read this and I am happy that they know about this poem too. They really do want him remembered...it is the greatest fear that he won't be. Sparticus Even with insects- |

It makes me so mad when I read of things like this. That poor boy and his family, these suppliars know the misery they cause but are far too greedy to care. This is a beautiful tribute Sparticus. Maggie |

Dear sweet thing, I am moved and sorrowed by your beautiful tribute to Michael. So many vibrant and wonderful people taken by a disease that robs them of their life. However, thank God for people like you and your family who can bring light to those who do not understand. Huggles, Marti 'You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist.' |
