Now Finished Poem

Wondering if it’s an omen, finding the box in the attic today? A treasure trove of memories into our lives This piece of paper upon which I started to write a poem I remember at the time I could write no more as I grieved Missing you as each day goes by and wishing you were here I know you are in the ever loving arms of our Lord The Lord sent you down as an angel on loan to us You were called home dear and we were not ready I know we will one day be together again Waiting for the day we will be called home also Now the poem I started to write to you is finished Our time together will come again my daughter and never end Written by: Carol Brown For The "Treasure Trove" contest of Linda-Marie 1st Place Winner
