Gone but not forgotten
In silent hours, we feel the space, The quiet ache, the empty place. Your laughter now a distant sound, A cherished echo that surrounds. The world was brighter with your light, Now shadowed by this endless night. Each moment shared, each tender touch, We miss you dearly, oh, so much. Your presence stays, so calm, so near, in every prayer. In every tear Though you...

Gone, But Not Forgotten
These days the kids don’t learn of what’s happened in turn, they can’t tell you of World War II, or when the White House burned. Their classes all are lies, since power hates the wise, keep them dumb and it’s easy to pull wool over their eyes. Kids think they’re something ‘new,’ a shuttered point-of-view, never told that it’s all been tried by smarter men than...

Dear Stranger
Dear Stranger, it's odd to call you that but to be fair that is what you are. I only have three years of memory of you. The rest are just stories I've heard through the years. That's all you are now, old stories told that are retold like folk tales of some kind. I have one...

"Gone But Not Forgotten" For reasons we may never understand You are not forgotten loved one Nor will you ever be We will remember thee Remembering the times we shared together Grandson, my friend, your friendship meant so much to me So many things I wanted to say to you Words could flow, however, much was left unsaid One thing I know for sure,...

You promised me that you would never leave my side, But now you’ve left me all alone in this world. I’m so lost now without my beautiful, young bride, Left by myself to raise our little baby girl. Was it something I did or said to you that was wrong That made you want to leave me in such a...

Underneath the earth you lie Unable to see Bay Area fog nor sky. Forty full years undergound, Unable to hear any sound? Or see a smile? You loved life with a passion! And such an adventurous soul, my dear husband, you. You brought mirth wherever you went. Spreading your soul's glittering confetti! You dreamt more than most men ever do, Far exceeding "making it in the world." I, your wife, has far...

Gone But Not Forgotten
I look down on you from Heaven And you can't believe I've gone I could no longer cope with life But you did nothing wrong Today a white feather brushed your cheek It looked like an angels wing It was a sign that i watch over you If you believe in such a thing There were times i tried to tell you Just how...

Gone, But Not Forgotten
Great sun, your day is drawing to a marvelous close. The horizon seems ablaze as you slowly spill into the turning of night. Tomorrow we shall see your return, as you stir sleepy eyes and herald the dawn. Your arrival brings forth the songbird's call. Though for now, your departure delivers dreams as we wade into the ether Knowing that you...

Gone But Not Forgotten
Trills tumble through an air long silenced warbled melodies enlighten the palate whistles delight but fly off to the thistle freighted by the frigid speak amongst the downturn of the day where blue skies lost their way Memories of warm caresses sing along in forgotten dreams eclipsed heat of destiny dealt away behind a curtain draping naked rays of beauty relegated to shroud...

Mossy vines served as camouflage for a decaying headstone A tangled web, a haunting collage Covering the name of a departed soul but time could not diminish the memory of this unknown She stood there silent and all alone wondering if this was her grandmother's grave the woman by whom she was raised ...

I’ll never forget my first day at primary school You bounded into the classroom, flashing a gap tooth smile With your blonde curly hair and blue eyes, I was smitten My first crush at the tender age of five! Over the years we became inseparable Then one day you told me terrible news Your dad had a promotion and you were...
