Close Your Eyes

TIME PASSES. . . with it the faces of those we knew who are no longer with us. LOVE AND LIFE. . . Parents, Grandparents, Brothers, Sisters, Uncles, Aunts, Husbands, Wives, Children, and Friends who helped shape to our lives. SOMBER SORROW. . . as we try now to remember them and the Spirit of Life each one had within. HAPPY HEARTACHE. . . the little smile which forms on our face as we think of something they did to make us laugh at ourselves. MEMORIES SAVED. . . those rich treasures we keep within from each one, as we see their faces, hear their voices, and remember them once more. AWAKE NOW. . . our eyes open to the life giving memories we now make with those who remain, saving the moment, the look, the sound for another time. TIME PASSES. . . when all the cherished moments will be brought together on the day of reunion promised by our Lord. The day of never ending reunion with Him.
