Time Heals

It seems I've not laughed for quite awhile.
When did my face last smile.
Sadness and grief now fill my day.
When will it go away.

Time heals the loss, I know that's true,
I just wish I didn't feel so blue.
Heavy my heart feels now you're gone,
but I believe that you live on
Someplace beyond our planet Earth,
life continues through rebirth.

I like to think your spirit is free,
to choose and create where you want to be.
Maybe you're traveling through oceans of stars,
exploring planets like Venus or Mars.
Or perhaps living beside a seaside,
watching the seagulls soar and glide.
Wherever you are, I hope that you know,
you're missed by your family, and we love you so.


In memory of my Mom/Grandmother 2023

Timothy Ray Date: 10/28/2023 3:01:00 PM time never really heals in depth but time gives us wounds that become moments when we hold much deeper the love we shared....mom said you live in an illusion and feel as if you are standing upon an eternity but the real reality is there is a real eternity waiting....mourn a day and return to the plow, life is about the living it will be in a moments notice you will be beyond the veil and in that reality...great poem Login to Reply Anne E Sangster - K Date: 10/29/2023 12:52:00 PM Thank you Timothy.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 8/15/2023 12:54:00 PM Somewhere this person is , that is for sure. Maybe even looking down on you.. Wonderfully poignant poem.

Yes, I'd like to think my Mom is looking down on her family from an otherworldly realm and also exploring or creating her own piece of paradise. Hugs, Anne xox
