you
let me know
that it was your
time to go
before
I really
ever knew
you
came to me
through broken
radio frequencies....

...Somewhere... Somewhere... Somewhere...

an angel's voice
bridging the space
between
heaven and my heart

There's a place for us

I wish
I wasn't so scared
so that
I could
feel
hear
your subtle ways
again
funny
we bonded ever
so quickly
fell so
comfortably into your arms
funny
how
time really doesn't play a factor
when it comes to love...

A time and a place for us ...

where we'll meet
bond all over
and fall
so comfortably into each others arms
again

PS

especially for my Grandma Piper as well as my Grandma Brandon...both passed away around the same time funny I was never really close to both of them, Grandma Piper I just met 3x or less and Grandma Brandon I basically knew my whole life but got close when it was too late...both came to me nonetheless...this song came on when my radio wasn't plugged in...and sure enough stopped when my step mum called to tell me Grandma Piper passed...

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this made me cry as I know deep down your grandmothers Brandon and Piper both sung to you through the unamplified radio to let you know they'll always love you and they're OK and just let you know they'll always guide you even when they've passed away! (kiss on cheek) This is beautiful, sweet friend, I send angel hugs your way, this is a most beautiful challenge, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kristen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

who I still catch the scent
of in my home
thank you

Kris, your lovely--yet spine-tingling!--story, is further proof of the power of souls to communicate with us.  By the  writing of your story, you may have helped some reader feel closer to a lost loved one.

Love & Eternal Light,
Linda

Such a comforting image this verse brought to mind.  I sure miss my grandparents too.  Thanks for the nice memory's this evoked Kristen.

OMG!!!! You have completely outdone yourself with this one...
You have arrived in the world of world-class poets. Congrats.

We are all equal but we’re individually different
and able to reach the impossible if we try.
