I wrote this poem for an image prompt contest. The picture included with this poem was the prompt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Went to go see my love
who passed years ago
Sitting on the family bench
Under the shade of the tree
Remembering our life
together
The years of happiness
It always brings tears
to the eyes to think of this
Wish you were still with me
as all these years fly by
I try not to grieve
because one day I know
I will see you again in
paradise

Nicely penned ode to a love departed, but still in the heart.

Thank you Jerry for your comment. Yes, I think of all my family members that have passed when I wrote this.
