ANGEL

The whisper of your memory
Dances across my mind
Some people don’t understand
How you’ve touched my life
But you showed me more
Than other people ever could
You showed me hope
You showed me how to be brave
Smiling through your pain
Always offering a kind hand
Always offering words of care
Never complaining or faltering
I know you look down on us now
Not with sadness of being gone
But with peace and love
Watching over us
With the memory of you
Forever embedded in our hearts

First, let me say that I love rose petals, They adorn the entrance to my home and are laced thoughout my poems.
Second, your heart is revealed in your first poem and so I KNOW that I love rose petals
Third, Welcome to passions, rose petals

Thank you for the warm welcome. I am still trying to figure all this out, so please be patient. I'm glad you liked my poem.  It was written for a very special friend that I met online.  She passed away about 2 months ago of cancer.  I was on my way to work the day after and was thinking of her. I jotted this down on a piece of scrap paper beore I went in.  It is one of my favorite poems.
