Poem
When I awoke this morning the sun was shinning so bright, I couldn’t believe it for it should have be dark and gloomy… Birds’ singing on high, singing in the spring, this is not right for it should be quiet and bleak… I went to sit in that big old chair cradling my head trying to understand why you are dead… Didn’t get the chance to tell you good-bye or hold you in my arms for the last time… As I set here I feel like we were cheated, cheated to chance of that last hug, kiss and to say, be seeing you someday… The days will seem so empty without you by my side and thank God for the memories for if not I am sure I would die… Keep hearing you in my head, I think you are saying live in the warmth, sing with the birds for they are telling you how much you are loved… Just know that when you hear my whisper in your head that God has allowed me to so you are not to despair… God has his arms around me guiding me along until the day we are together again and I wish you happiness until that short fleeting time is gone and you are by my side… By Sandra Lea Hoban ©2012
