She never liked it here this her confession
I knew all along I had a connection
her husband passed away
and the very next day
A rental truck in the funeral procession

Falling,
In finality,
sorrow's fiery colors,
I cannot bear you've passed away,
my loss

A wilted violet bows its pretty purple head,
Like me it has no energy as sorrow pleads.
My love, once so pure and vibrant now is dead.
My heart filled with passion, stilled, it bleeds.

I cannot bring him back though it would seem
I sometimes find him young and happy still,
So alive and handsome in a treasured dream.
If only I could conjure those dreams at will.

I often think that I can feel his spirit near,
With knocking sounds and blinking lights.
Late eves or early morn I hear his voice so clear.
I try so hard to connect with him those nights.

Sometimes I hold his watch and other things
I feel they retain vibrations of his energy.
I think of him surrounded by angel wings
And I know he is at peace with family.

This poem is about my husband Michael who passed away July 29, 2020
My son Robby passed away recently May 29, 2021 he was 44

I wrote a blog about my stepson Michael Jr. who is now in a nursing home slowly getting better thanks to all of your prayers. I know it seems confusing.

My One Special Love

*~*

I bask in the image of your sun lined face
   tanned and golden from sun kissed rays
   I am mesmerized by my memories of the twinkle 
   in your sky blue eyes – your affable smile

My dreams of your once familiar kiss – 
   the feel of your fingers–tender on my face
   Smelling your skin next to mine as I fall 
   into your welcoming, loving embrace

You whisper in my ear those tender words
   so sweet so tender. I long to hear you say once more
   those two words that captured my heart- “baby girl”...
   the name you called me in our time of love

Nothing will ever take those euphoric moments from me
   My memories of you and I – even though…
   you have transcended this life into the Heavens above
   you will always remain...my one special love.
  
                                                                *~*

Author's note- Dedicated to my husband Rick -who passed away to another world called Heaven in 2009

Hello Dear In the Name of the Lord

Hello Dear in the Name of the Lord

By Elton Camp

I get those lying e-mails every day
About the same things they will say

“My husband and I are very rich
He was a devil and I was a *****.”

“Now my husband has passed away
And the doc says I may not live a day.”

We were never able to produce a child
With no heir, the money drives me wild.”

“There’s something I want you to do
Let me send my millions over to you.”

“Lest my evil relatives grab in haste
And this fortune terribly will waste.”

“Part of the money will be for you
The rest give to the Lord, please do.”

“So I can send this stupendous amount
Just give the number of your bank account.”

“If with this request you will please comply
I promise that I’ll drain your account dry.”

Two Little Boxes Part 2

A wedding ring and locket
Were the only things inside
Two pictures in the locket
Of a husband and his bride

Trembling hands replaced the gold
And re-tied all the strings
Everyone felt guilty
As they viewed these precious things

The second box held letters
Written by a soldiers hand
Post-marked 1995
From a distant desert land

Also there, another note
From U.S. government
Expressing deepest sorrow
And concern for her lament

Everyone now understood
How Marys life was frayed
Her only son was lost to war
And husband passed away

Two tiny little boxes
Were her only claim to life
The consumate devotion
Of a mother and a wife

When there was nothing left to have
That's when she came to stay
Enjoying every hour there
Until she passed away

So pray for Mary in your thoughts
And know she's not alone
She's bathed in precious glory
As she's finally made it home

Hell Without You

I know I can’t stay,
I died the night you passed away,
I’m stuck haunting this place like a ghost.
Hell looks a lot like home,
My post,
Greeted by your scent in the bedroom
I’ve found my doom,
In a home I haunt.

Sulking like a ghost,
I’m wasting away,
I died the day you did,
But in a completely different way.
Hell looks a lot like home.

Lost without you beside me,
Hold me close,
Protect me.
Never deny me what I want
And all I want is you
So keep me close.
But without you, you haunt my dreams,
I see you everywhere,
But things aren’t as they seem.
Even heaven is hell without you,
And this home looks a lot like hell to me.

I Can Only Dream of This

If once more i could have the chance
To see your smile embraced in dance
Feel your lips touching mine 
A dance binding all in twine 
But i can only dream of this 
A lonely dance without its kiss  

To have the chance to hold your hand
Walk the beach in its path of sand 
To see you laughing as we walk
To hear your sweet voice as we talk
But i can only dream of this 
For my path is that of bliss

If i could only have one more chance with you
I would believe that dreams do come true 
Never again embraced in this lonely dance
If only i had just one more chance 
But we both know i can only dream of this 
You passed away now its you i miss

Becoming of the Banshee

There was a beautiful girl
Who had the whole world at her feet
But then she did meet
The man of her dreams
He was as kind and gentle as he seemed

Very soon they were married
The couple beamed
They were so happy
She called his family her own
That's how close they had grown
Man and wife bought a house
They soon called home

But fate, as it is known
Has ways of rearing its ugly head
And it seems that these two
Were due their share
Of bad luck

The husband was struck down
With a terrible illness
And soon he was dead
As she sat by his bed
The girl was filled with dread
Her husband was gone but
There was so much left unsaid

As the girl wept
Something inside her crept
And suddenly she let out an inhumane howl
A noise that most people would call fowl

The nurse who looked after her husband scowled in disapproval
And sent for immediate removal
The girl soon died of a broken heart
But that wasn't the end
It was just the start

She loved his family with all her heart
So after she died
She would cry and wail
Without fail
For any member who passed away
And she is still with that family to this very day
For she was the very first banshee

Rough Times

My husband left this life last year
Just two and a half months later
My sweet brother passed away
My best friend's husband also died

My son-in-law left my daughter
I lost my job without just cause
Two disks in my back folded
Two contractors ripped me off

My oldest brother went to jail
My sister was arrested, as well
My favorite brother was fired
From his job for working too much

I found a guy who told me lies
So I left him for another
Now, he's unable to say those things 
That I am really needing to hear

My step-grandaughter had to go
Home to live with her mother
My daughter has taken a driving job 
I will be alone for the first time ever

Now as this year winds to a close
These eighteen months that I've survived
Were harder than any other
That I have ever had to endure

Thought I couldn't make it
Thought I just might die
Felt so heartbroken 
I cried and cried

Looking back, I now can see
The strength it took to make it
Thank you Lord for being there
And for helping me to take it
