Darwin Was Our Friend
I want to find the answers
But don’t know the questions
I want to see the beauty
From those who have left us
I want to feel the lightness
Up against the darkness
I want to see the senseless
And make some sense of it
Because the world today is darker
It’s subtle but it’s lighter
Because one of our friends
Is no longer among us.
Darwin went too early
I still didn’t know him
And now for all of us
Our hearts have been broken
And he was the fixer
To so many on this journey
And he was the comfort
To so many worries
A puzzle piece left there
Just sitting on the table
With no place to put it
Our minds are unable
Religion is a kindness
Religion is the journey
Religion is learning
Even while we’re filled with worry
And people come to help us
No matter how they find us
And there are certain people
Who find a way to bind us
And when they are no longer
How can that make us stronger?
And when they are no longer…
We pray to be stronger.
Darwin was a leader
Darwin was a maker
Darwin was a giver
Darwin was a taker
Darwin was our friend
But Darwin is no longer
We will greatly miss him
Darwin was a friend.
Darwin was my friend....
