Notes About The Poem

New Beginnings Tainted Memories

Summer days longing
tranquil winter nights
Approaching
Foundling When born
Summon all On board
No warmth around
Thy Fondness for my twin 
Angels floundering wings 
Descending flight 
A death in my arms
As eyes looked on
The feeling of emptiness
Despair rushed from within
Now gone The giggles and laughter
Jacks we played small talk we had
I walk alone now lonely
Seeing those distorted faces
Cascading over a motionless
Limp body
I could talk even scream
But could not be heard
I prayed please bring her back
God can you help
Does anybody care
Anybody wonder where's
She's going
My silent screams go unheard
Time flashes by ever so slowly
Memories projected onto me
The bright lights grow 
dimmer and dimmer
The final thoughts arrive
In a fleeting moment
To a bright life with angel wings
That was but could not 
Endure the final chapter....
