To Feel His Smile

Every piece of furniture reminds her of him. She picks up the phone. To tell him something funny. To get his reactions. To hear his voice. Every glance out the window is a memory. She picks up the phone To feel his smile To hear him laugh at the same time To explain her feelings Forgetting each time There are no phones in heaven.

Oh Caren your heartfelt poetry really resonates with me my friend, my son used to ring me at least once a day and still I reach for the phone hoping it will be him ~ wishing I could hear his voice one more time. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

I keep reaching for the phone to call my mother. She has been gone 10 weeks now. I wonder if it will ever stop.

Very touching poem my friend. Really pulls at the heart strings. Well done. Have a great night. Actually we should both probably be in bed. Stay safe.
