Reflections

A new dawn breaks with morning light
 As we reflect on those we knew
 We recall friends who lost life's fight
 A new dawn breaks with morning light
 Some friends took their heavenly flight
 And journeyed on beyond the blue
 A new dawn breaks with morning light
 As we reflect on those we knew

I love this poem, Joseph. I’m fav-ing it. The flow is so easy. Comforting. Like a nightlight., and reflecting stars glued to a child’s ceiling. Also, like the gentler love & remembraces for those i’ve loved who’ve passed ononce the shock has eased. A wondros ie e. Bless you! saly

Very emotive and expressive lines penned. As we get older, more and more of those we once knew go on to meet their creator. Sometimes we can't remember for sure if a person we once knew passed. If this is for a contest, it reads like a good contender to me. Way to go. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara

"we reflect on those we knew." It seems as though we've been doing that a lot lately. Your thoughts caress softly around my and my heart. My best to you, in the New Year. Hugs, Brandy
