Remembering a friend (**links added)


Remembering a friend,
gone too soon,

Who lived life hard
and fast,
and full!

an adventurer
seeker
rainbow chaser

My reggae dancing buddy,
we danced beneath a wide drunken sky
"If you know what life is worth
then you will look for yours on Earth..."

The way you lived your life,
its like you knew

Always a smile,
a laugh,
an offer to help;
my go-to guy anytime
a 2am computer crunch
rescuing my first webpage,
and my sanity
now here I am, still...!

Well, we went our own ways
you East, me West
our paths haven't crossed in years.
I have only heard of your struggles
secondhand, bits and pieces
passed through others.

But my thoughts have flown to you
often
and I know you fought a good fight
I'm sure of it
with grace, dignity,
beauty,
love.

We will miss you Eric Yann Battle 9/14/76 - 8/28/06
