Poems

 

Today I smiled and all at once
Things didn't look so bad
Today I shared with someone else
A bit of hope I had
Today I worked with what I had
And longed for nothing more
And what had seemed like only weeds
Were flowers at my door

When someone
comes into our lives …

And they are too quietly
and quickly gone

They leave footprints
on our hearts

and their memory
stays with us
forever

[Anonymous]

But you didn't go alone

A million times we've needed you
A million times we've cried
If love could have saved you
You never would have died
In life we loved you dearly
In death we love you still
In our hearts you hold a place
No-one can ever fill
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone
Parts of us went with you
The day God took you home

[Anonymous]

In the rising of the sun
And in its going down,
We remember you.

In the blowing of the wind
And in the chill of winter,
We remember you.

In the blueness of the sky
And in the warmth of summer
We remember you.

In the rustling of leaves
And in the beauty of autumn
We remember you.

In the beginning of the year
And when it ends
We remember you.

When we are lost
And sick at heart
We remember you.

When we have joys
We yearn to share
We remember you.

So long as we live,
You too shall live,
For you are part of us
And we remember you.
