Your Unique Birthday Gift

Your walk, your talk, the magnetism The thoughts of you still make me smile Your smile, still etched in my mind Everything still there Memories we shared I still miss you Still wonder Recall Wish We had a common love for music Pleasure of sharing them with you Our favorite songs still played The tears trickle at times Feelings has changed No longer sad Happy thoughts Cherished Smile My birthday’s significance changed You took your final breath that day It happened so suddenly Would not alter a thing A last smile not shared We never kissed Amity Magic Love 7th place A JOURNEY BACK INTO TIME CONTEST Sponsored by: LINDA MARIE © All Rights Reserved

Althought your "tears trickle at times," at least you have some memories that make you smile, Wilma. This is a terrific poem that really moved me.

You share some great memories of this dear friend, Wilma. How sad that this friend died on your birthday. I had a friend like this; he died on Christmas 2005. There was pain for a long time, but I can look back and smile remembering the good times now too. This one goes to my favorites, Wilma. Thanks so much for sharing it! Love, Carolyn
