A Distant Sadness

Walking upon the ground singing
frozen solid crisply cracking ice reality
each step inside a crunching golden morning
Alone looking towards the rising sun 
cold wind cutting chill to the bone
clouds shade pink to grey 
Winds blowing cold breathing whispers 
whistling in chilling howls echoes deeply
Staring faraway over snow capped  mountains

Distant horizon of dreams 
love your the light of hope 
drums forever in your grace will beat
A daunting year for to come 
tears fall looking at my brother's grave 
 not knowing what the future holds

Hi Liam! Very beautifully penned but so very sad my dearest friend Liam! Please at least try not to be sad for too long, in the end all things will work out for you, so never lose sight of God and of all your beautiful hopes and dreams.Keep them all very close to your heart and your soul. With God's help you can achieve them and everything you want to. He'll give you the strength you need to complete what you need or want to. Your pen is truly gold! A very Solid 7 for you! smiling I wish you a very Happy New Year and your very dear family ! Have a very lovely evening! :) Love and Hugs! xxxxxxx D.

- The best way to predict the future - is to create it yourself - A touching and sad poems my friend Liam - The only thing we know about the future is that it will be slightly different - The best thing about future is that it comes one day at a time - // huggs Anne-Lise :)
