As I Walk Upon the Ground

Poem for my late husband Jerry---2011------As I walk upon the ground--by charlotte


As I walk upon the ground
you lay beneath but make no sound
with no shoes upon my feet
I think of our life we once had
visiting your grave site
still makes me feel so sad
As the stars shine
upon you every night
I think about what
my life with out you is now like
As I place a Flower
upon your grave
my thoughts of you
in my head will always be saved
As once again I must turn and leave
Jerry my new life without you
is getting easier but that
doesn't mean I don't still
miss you and I don't still  still grieve
Byee for now untill we meet again
you'll aways be in my heart my husband
and my best friend
As I walk upon the ground 
you lay beneath but make no sound,,,,

I dream some of my poems. If I am upset or happy I can not control my poetry it just come to me. I always keep paper by my bed. Thank you all for your kind words.
