Poem


When father died I held onto his cold dead hand,
           then, I let father go to Heaven with an embrace;
though, I knew with me his spirit would always stand,
                    I did not want to ever, ever release him.

When mother died I held her tightly to my heart,
            then, I let mother go to Heaven with an embrace;
though, I knew in my life she would always be part,
                    I did not want to ever, ever release her.

When grandma- my inspiration- died my soul shattered,
           then, I let grandma go to Heaven with an embrace;
she said write-   and I let my poems be scattered,
                    I did not want to ever, ever release her.                

When my child died without even seeing the sky, 
            I let baby go to Heaven with an embrace;
when my true love left, I stood at his grave weeping why,
                 I did not want to ever, ever release him.
                 
When each pet cat went down that rainbow road,
           I let them go to Heaven with an embrace;
and though I knew that they had been from God borrowed,
                I did not want to ever, ever release them.

"Find peace for the dead embrace you still though they dwell above;
oh, it is never easy in this life to let go and release love."
