POEMS for KEI - KEI'S FINAL JOURNEY AND A CONVERSATION WITH KEI
             
                                    KEI and family

KEI'S FINAL JOURNEY

 
Come explore with me Kei
Come ascend the clouds and wind
Come trek through the oceans and streams
Come bathe on the welcoming plains
Explore

 
Come ignore your pain with me KEI
Come ignore your forgotten past
Come ignore your earlier misery
Come ignore your elapsed seclusion and loneliness
Ignore

 
Come escape with me KEI
Come escape the imprisoned bars and glass
Come escape the gruelling concrete slabs
Come escape your unforeseen captives
Escape

 
Come enjoy your freedom with me KEI
Come enjoy your superior tranquility
Come enjoy your long-awaited peacefulness
Come enjoy your treasured rewards
Enjoy

 
Come search with me KEI
Come search your biological roots
Come search your natural heritage
Come search your privileged and humane birthright
Search

 
Come Discover with me KEI
Come discover your exhilarating flight
Come discover the perpetual radiant light
Come discover your freedom from fright
Discover

 
Come soar with me KEI
Come soar beyond the mountains and hills
Come soar higher than the sapphire oceans
Come soar through the warmth and wind
Soar

 
Come rejoice with me KEI
Come rejoice your hallowed surroundings
Come rejoice your belated salvation
Come rejoice your pride and dignity
Rejoice

 
Come surrender with me KEI
Come surrender to the new established world
Come surrender to your new unearthed beginning
Come surrender to love engulfing you
Surrender

 
Come in peace with me KEI
Come in peace to the other side
Come in peace from an extension of a previous life
Come in peace to your incomparable reward
Peace be with you DEAR PRECIOUS KEI


 
KEI you are now a FREE SPIRIT until we gather
in a superior world

   A Conversation with KEI
I see the fear in your eyes and the pain on your face
the dignity you deserve...not shown is such a disgrace.

 
I look in those eyes which are so distant from me
I look in those eyes which are so near to me.

 
Those tears that are shed are due to uncaring minds
those tears that are shed are due those oh so blind.

 
Please help me exist as it was meant to be
to prove to those cruel souls what my life should see.

 
If obstacles exist and bars are in view
than pray for me my friends until I am safe among you.

 
Kei is my name as I'm sure you'll not forget
you've tried to free me and there shall be no regret.

 
Kei, dear Kei we've attempted your plight
We'll join you someday and view you at first sight.

 
Your precious to so many and of course your own kind
We'll all be re-united as this you will find.

 
I'm frail and hurting from this ailing sick body
some day I'll be younger and playful with many

 
I'm too tired and restless to beg for a real meal
I'll be carefree while swimming and romping through fields.

 
I'll dream of my homeland and those fortunate to roam free
As I'll join in their antics some day and be me.

 
This plea for freedom is my only reward
When I leave this cruel existence, thus my story shall be told.

 
I'v waited and waited for 13 long years
To join my immediate family.....joyfully filled with tears.

 
I hear you replay this last act out with your sweet mind
To not accept this final decision would truly be unkind.

 
Your beauty and strength will return once again
Although no bars will hold you ...you'll be free in the end.

 
We'll still fight for your justice for the royal that you are
And tell the world your desolute story from near and far.

 
Kei is living within our spirit and mind
She'll continue to live on until we co-exist with her kind.

 
A world free of pain, agony and capture will be felt
For all to live in harmony ....not the cards that were dealt.

 
Before I go , I must say you are so loved
This love will continue and remain up above.

 
I'll always be with you no matter the distance
And remember your hardships by helping to better my existence.

 
Your kindness and warmth will be with me forever in the end
A new life may be spared by such dedication my friend.

 
Believing in me displayed compassion and warmth
I'll always protect you from evil and from this day forth.

About Me An Animal Activist,loyal, compassionate, and care deeply for animals, family and friends and wish happiness for all. I try my best to help in a cause I believe in and attempt to see it through, unless issues out of our control are no longer the best/right choice for a certain animal involved. KEI was our main concern for close to 2 yrs. but now anything to help the rights of another animal(s) will be attempted strictly in the name of KEI. Her memory on further animal rights issues displays total respect for her and her memory.

Wild Fact About Me
My Philosophy We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals." ~Immanual Kahn . Admitting one's wrong is part of the membership requirements included into the league of the human race. M.Black..."A dream becomes a goal when action is taken toward its achievement.-Bo Bennett"/and Humanity displays one's soul to the world - M. Black.
What Gives Me Hope I'm a loyal supporter in all animal issues and attempting to help in some small way gives me hope that man and God's creatures will some day live in harmony. Animals have a soul as do most humans.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by One thing would be to stop all inhumane animal testing in labs. 2nd to stop aerial hunting of innocent animals and stop violence, hunger and pain in as many countries as possible. Passing strict laws to punish anyone who abuses animals and children. Actually, enforcing humanity towards all living creatures and beings. Another issue is to help in making it unlawful in my city for dog's to ride in the back of trucks. It places their lives in danger which has been documented numerous times. Their safety is the main concern.
