Christmas Remembrance
Christmas Remembrance
by Robert (Bob) Moore © 2015
We’ll pause our celebrations, of Christmas and New Year
to spend a quiet moment, and maybe shed a tear
to think of friends and family, who are no longer here
and be thankful for the memories, we hold forever dear
empty places at the table, empty spaces in our heart
the thoughts we will remember, of the day we had to part
they will always be here with us, forever in our dreams
so close to us that we can almost, touch them, so it seems
we know they’re watching over us, and they love us still
we think about them every day, and know we always will
remember all the happy times, we shared when they were here
and we will meet again someday, and hold them, forever near
