A Letter Too My Daughter By Paul Wilson Rest upon your bed of memories Each one has a special place in your heart Embrace the day and all it has to offer Your life is over but now you are reborn Eternity awaits you dear daughter Be not afraid of what is yet to come The journey you have taken Was over in the blink of an eye Your pain has ended before you realize As you look down upon your loved ones Hearts breaking tears falling like the rain That you loved so dearly You tried the best you could To please all of those whose lives you touched The fight was more than you could bare In the end you left us in tears As we remember your beautiful smile And all the hearts you touched So much has changed since you passed away The world is in isolation because of a virus People are dying every day young and old alike I’m so glad you didn’t have to see it all You would have worried about me and your Momma And others that you loved Tomorrow we celebrate Easter The day Jesus was resurrected To be with his father in Heaven You are in Heaven with him I know To receive his everlasting love For all of eternity Last week was your birthday No candles to be blown out No phone calls for me to make or jokes to tell you I kissed your picture like I do every day But with all my heart I wish I could have kissed you Love Daddy Copy Righted 4-11-2020 ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

This is beautiful and touching Paul. I noticed you spoke a the call didn't take place this year on her birthday. If you're like me, you spoke the words you needed to anyway and know they were heard. When I read how you write of your daughter, I am always opened up emotionally in remembrance to those in my life of whom I held similar reverence. There are a total of two who meet this standard, so I guess what I am trying to say is that to me it is very clear all you lost in losing your daughter. Hugs to you, my friend. |

Michael...Thank you for your kind words, I am getting thru this one day at a time. Really don't have the desire or words to start writing again yet, maybe some day I might try. Seems like when she died my muse and heart died with her. Thanks my friens for caring...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |
