Poem
I didn't have a chance to say goodbye,
to let you know how dear you are to me
and though my chance is gone, I still will try
the sadness that I feel won't let me be

You were a gentleman and caring friend
the words you wrote brought joy and brought relief
In verse you mourned your son's untimely end
You'd also lost your wife; you knew of grief

You also knew the healing power of joy
The jokes you wrote in rhyme would make us smile
And though your father's heart so missed your boy
You knew he'd lived a life that was worthwhile

I mourn your death, but celebrate your life
Your words live on in me, safe and secure
Your resting now, at peace from all the strife
You will be missed, my friend, of that be sure

I know the time will come when you will rise
All strong and glorified before the throne
We all will see that twinkle in your eyes
You'll get a great reward for love you've shone

Till time when I can see you face to face
And share eternity in heaven sweet
I leave you in God's hands, cradled in grace
while I look for that day when we can meet

Eileen Manassian
In Memory of Tim Ryerson

This is a poem Tim and I wrote for a contest on Past Lives

We are Lovers
Throughout history, we are lovers
Throughout history, we are soul mates
 
We are Romeo and Juliet
We are Anthony and Cleopatra
We are Lancelot and Guinevere
We are Tristan and Isolde
Scarlett O' Hara and Rhett
Elizabeth Barrett and Robert
Pocahontas and John
Jayne Eyre and Rochester...
 
Blended inside one another
Melted inside one another
 
Two hearts are one
Two souls are one
Throughout the ages
Throughout eternity
 
Forever was
Forever shall be...

You and I
The sweetest symphony,
and if there were to be
another life
than the one that we now live,
I know your soul would find mine
We would be 
the next world renowned lovers,
our names immortalized 
in the books that will be written,
for a love like ours,
this passion we share,
defies the boundaries of time
It's a living entity
infused with heaven's light
and its longevity

You and I
We lived; we live; we will live,
for we are the embodiment of love
We ARE love
Personified
You and I
Love's sweetest refrain
Yesterday, now, and forever

YOU and I
