Matrix Moments

Media Moments: Question, reflect, connect

Allan

A Rare person
crossing generations
carrying respect, laughter and stories
This was Allan.

When seeking Easter Camp parents
Youth groups quick suggestion
“Allan and Lesley would be cool.”
This was Allan.

An embattled history
struggle with addiction
encounters with Holy Spirit freedom
This was Allan.

Eighty five birthdays
A marriage and family
Fifty three years with a powerful woman’s love
This was Allan.

A smile and opinions
able to hear others
and speak his own strong voice.
This was Allan.

A comic genius
Shelves of adventure worlds 
passion, baddies and superness, owned it
This was Allan.

Fireworks ignited
for generations to come
As we look across 
gathered friends and family
and absent lives touched
Each of us his memory sparks...
In celebration of Allan - God spark!

Starting Thoughts: The wonderful friends we make in church, people we would never meet apart from our mutual journey in Christ. This poem celebrates the life of one dear friend who recently died and now enjoys life with God in a whole new way.
