The path that was certain The life that we planned Now lies in the distance Just dust in our hand The laughter that echoed Across seas of tomorrow Replaced by the silence The weight of our sorrow
Clouds pass above In soft, quiet flight Sunlight dissolves Into shimmering light The world spins around Without a careΒ Whilst drifting away Quite unaware
Floating Adrift on a sea without end Caught In a current that does descend A feather On the water, no anchor nor care Seemingly Weightless, seemingly unaware
StillΒ I remember the quiet of dawn The world barely waking The stars almost gone A whisper of hope In the cool morning air A promise that somewhere You'd always be there
AlwaysΒ I thought we'd weather the stormsΒ Together, unmoving Through life's shifting forms We'd laugh in the sunshine We'd dance in the rain And always find strength In each joy and each pain
ForeverΒ A word that's endless and grand A time that we held Like the sea grasps the sand Though moments may vanish And dreams fall apart Still Always Forever You live in my heart
Love you so much Precious sons Beloved Mum xxxxx
Blue skies and clouds…. quite a pleasant start to October
So much we said With a glance, or sigh So many questions Left floating on high So deep is the silence That settles between So loud are the words That remain unseen
The future we planned In colours so bright Now fades into shadows Swallowed by night Dreams that once shimmered With promise and cheer Dissolve into echoes That no one can hear
Love you so much Precious sons Beloved Mum xxxxx
Dull, wet and windy Sunflowers from the garden Blown down by the wind Looking pretty on the windowsill
In quiet corners Of the mind Memories linger Soft and kind Echoes of voices Faces dear A testament To those not here
Slipping through time As threads of light Held on close Though out of sight Laughter and tears In moments shared Their presence lingers Love declared
Their chair is empty The heart still feels Their lasting touchΒ A wound never heals Memories, a bridge That's strong and clear The missing soulsΒ Grasp tightly, so near
