"All You Asked For" One thing only did you want Or so you'd often say Before you left us all behind Before you passed away A single wish is all you had When others wished for more Yet we've forgotten, so it seems And gone from peace to war And now we need your guidance most Before we fall apart We need your love, we need your voice We need your touch, your heart A family bound by trust and love Once solid, sure, and strong Now tears itself apart, it seems Its great support is gone In this, our time of greatest need A cruel joke it seems That you, our sure and guiding light, Live only in our dreams June 11, 2009 AMdG "My candle burns at both ends; it will not last the night; but ah, my foes, and oh, my friends--it gives a lovely light!" -Edna St. Vincent Millay |

There is nothing I can say to help you live through this pain.I am sure some one here will have seme good thoughts to share.In sharing these feelings you are helping yourself in a way. Keep on writing. Best to you, latearrival |

memories are important, they are part of life too, and people live when we think of them I guess. Thanks for the touching poem. yann |
