Redemption

That Bright Look in His Eyes

This poem was written after the passing of Grampa Danielson in honor of his memory.

A master of conversation
Ready, interested, and invested
Diversified in means of communication
Face-to-face, Facebook, or a text
There came that bright look in his eyes

A pastor of the people
Humble, intrigued, generous
Advocate for that positive mental attitude
Present, hopeful, and kind
There came that bright look in his eyes

A man of resilience
Steady, committed, brave
Determined even on the worst of days
To love, protect, and serve
There came that bright look in his eyes

A child of the King
Joyful, free, adventurous
Invigorated in that holy eternity
Resting, feasting, shouting with praise
There is that bright look in his eyes
