Pam Deremer Poet I do not know?

Your Everywhere

I thought of you just today,
when a song you loved came on to play.
I pictured you so young and strong,
you loved to laugh and sing along.
I saw you in the things I smelled,
this child of mine that I once held.
I saw you in last winters snow,
and in a campfires tender glow.
I saw you in the dunes of sand,
where you would always lend a hand.
You gave me courage to strive for more,
but for yourself...you closed the door.
I'll not forget you...this is clear,
cause you are with me there and here.
                                                             P.R. Deremer
