Brenda Chiri Poet Rhyme

A Ghost's Embrace

Future soul needs saved,
by a ghost from her past
Caring and loving presence,
a spirit none can surpass

A being that needs that touch,
advise from back in the day
An essence that left this earth
One forgiving ones misguided ways

Fool who made many wrong descions,
needs daddy's strong embrace
Comforted with a "Daddy knows!"
Arms that kept her safe

Need of my essence saved,
take it when next you go
Wrapped in a fathers love,
beg you to keep me whole

How will we meet again, 
if I'm damaged once more
Your baby girl needs you,
so please save my broken soul

John Fleming March 28, 2020 at 12:13 PM This is really all rather touching, Brenda; it has that obvious Sylvia Plath feel about it all...but, unlike many of Plath's sad poems, in your poem here there is an underlying sense of real unconditional love and unstinting support. Simple and without fanfare -- but powerful in its impact! Great piece of poetry, Poetess. With much fondness. :) john Brenda Chiri March 29, 2020 at 2:18 AM Feeling a bit better thank you John! Sorry I haven't been on messenger much of late! But I will check I'm on it tomorrow! But thank you John you are always so kind to me!;) hugs!;)

Andrea Dietrich March 27, 2020 at 8:36 PM so sad, Brenda!! I like to think the spirits of those fondest to us are looking down on us. Brenda Chiri March 27, 2020 at 11:28 PM My dad most assuredly is! Thanks Andrea!;)
