Togetherness

looking at your pictures you always knew to smile with my silent moment i'll think of you a while and try not to let those memories become a tearfull reunion but savor the precious moments and have a delightful communion sometimes i think about your fingers and your toes and looking at your picture i remember your pretty crooked nose the way you did your hair when you got dressed up the scarfs, the ribbons, earrings and other pretty stuff i can see your picture and i even have a recording of your voice but i'd rather have you if i ever had the choice looking at you picture and remembering your voice i'd much rather have you if i ever had the choice

Precious memories you have of April, John. The scarfs, ribbons, earrings, even pictures and recordings may bring you both comfort and pain for the time being. Just remember, you WILL be reunited again in heaven. Love, Carolyn

John, I think of my parents everyday.I think of my father's laughter, thngs that he did, stories that he told, my mother's simple advice, foods that she prepared that no one but her had the recipe too.Those are such good memories.I am glad that you are having good memories.So many loose someone and can't say that they have good memories.I appreciate you stopping by, reading, and commenting on my work..I just used a wild imagination when I saw those Turkeys..I could see some juveniles there..Sare
