What dreams may come beyond your death
I do not know? They've not yet breath.
And yet I know your love rides on;
although you go, I sing your song
what dreams may come, I do not know
Yet dreams of you will brightly flow.

And dreams go on, as dreams will do
my dreams and hopes will be of you.
Beyond your death you whisper still
to give me hope, forestall the chill;
for dreams go on, I know this truth
and dreams of you are soft and couth.

I'll miss you most when dreams may come
but dreams are dust, when said and done.
You gave me love to keep me warm
in dreams you'll take another form.
When dreams may come I'll miss you most,
while you are with the heavenly host.

What dreams may come, I'll wait to see
if grief gives way to victory,
but whatever this day brings
I'll think of you for my heart sings.
You've passed beyond and come what may
I'll dream about you everyday.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Kethry, this sounds so heartaching, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you and hope this is fictional and if this is, I send angel hugs out to you to swathe the scars! (sad sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kethry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Have you seen the movie, Keth?  It's a good one, and led me to writing a poem, too...and this?  This is soft, and charming...and I'm going to keep it...

I read this several times... and loved it more with each reading.

If not for dreams, I'd have no hope
They comfort me, help me to cope
With chill that soaks through to the bone  -
With dreams, I know I'm not alone.
