Heaven Must Have Needed You More ~ An original poem

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

This is an original piece I wrote shortly after Michael Jackson passed. I felt compelled to write something. seeing as he has been a part of my life. I remember being a bit surprised and a sense of loss. More than I would have expected. Then again, I have watched him grow up, enjoyed his music & videos throughout the years. I guess I just wanted to show my appreciation.

The Angels descended unto the earth

your spirit and soul shown radiantly brilliant.

Making it facile to locate your  presence.

Here now, to take you home where you belong.

Michael, we mourn you from every corner of this earth

Without question and NO denying the impact you've instill.

Quietly, the angels glide you across these endless galaxies.

              HOME.......Heaven must have needed you now

 One of the few who changed our views, our perspective

Enriched our lives for those who watched & listened.

Giving us song, dance, mystery & love

Inviting our imagination to explore infinite possibilities

You are and shall be admired, adored but never forgotten.

Yes, it is our loss here in this place & time

So ascend amongst the Angels with NO despair

For your  work & destiny has already been ordained

              SEE.........Heaven must have needed you more

No more tears, pain nor sorrows to interfere your compassion

We know you're at peace now and not alone

Sing & dance under the protected wings of His Angels

The Light you shined, reaching across ALL humanity

Leaving us a blueprint of inspiration & knowledge

Blessing all with wisdom & awareness 

through your sound & vision

             Indeed.......Heaven must have needed you now

As mortals,

Many may not have gotten it, but I did

Sustain our God giving child like ways.

Their innocence, purity, curiosity & wonder

For it is written, that we are ALL Gods children

As this is true and if the children are our future

Everyday, lets remember to let them be just that.....children

Smile, Michael Smile, It's your time to Smile

               Yes........ Heaven must have needed you more!
