Among the Stars

I see your sparkling eyes among the stars Your voice calls out to me upon the breeze Although it seems that it has been many years I can remember like it was yesterday Your voice calls out to me upon the breeze A melody that somehow pricks my heart I can remember it like it was yesterday All those moments will not be lost in time A melody that somehow pricks my heart You were my joy I held you to my breast All those moments will not be lost in time Now you reside in the place where angels sing You were a joy I held you to my breast I watched you grow from a boy to a man Now you reside in the place where angels sing This world could not hold one as special as you I watched you grow from a boy to a man Although it seems it has been many years This world could not hold one as special as you I see your sparkling eyes among the stars I have a friend who recently lost her son and I am writing this poem from a female perspective.

Oh my! You did very well with the woman's perspective. Such emotion with the joy unable to be completely submerged by the sadness.
