As we grow older,
And hair turns to gray,
Our thoughts and our bodies,
Change in some ways.

A friend or a loved one
Passes on-leaving grief,
But they leave us with memories,
That touch us so deep.

The soul never dies,
Nor their memories depart,
They'll be with you daily
And live on in your heart.

Time brings us healing,
It takes quite a while
But their soul lives within you,
And will soon bring a smile.

May God bring you peace,
May your heart quickly mend,
May your tears turn to laughter
Till you're together again.

Toe, beneath your jocular, witty, and rascallion ways, is a heart that beats with compassion and love.
Thank you, my Bama friend. Your words were a comforting way to greet this day.

Thank you so very much for your kindness and thoughtfulness.

Sending you a big, warm hug-o-love,

Linda
P.S. Miss Clairol is working hard at keeping those grays at bay!

You have a beautiful heart Toe.
That's why we all love ya!

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart..
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul.

May your tears turn to laughter

A very lovely poem for a wonderful gal...
filled with light, love and care for others...

well said Toe

Toe,
There you go spoiling your reputation with an awesome write. So once again we have evidence of your maturity, wisdom and sensitivity all of which I'm sure Earth Angel already knew but has a new found appreciation for. You ARE the best and I find comfort in your words as well.


If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Toe,
I hate to bump your toe again, I'm sure it hurts. But as a friend I'll add my blurt.
Well done.

I'll sure say "Amen" to this!  It's the hope everyone in mourning needs, and you said it so beautifully.

Such comforting truths you pen in this poem of TLC!  What little of you poems I have read, I've truly enjoyed.  And it is hearts like yours who makes the exploration of this site wonderful.  Beautiful...
