 My friend, I know that on this day A lighthouse is needed to show the way Through the fog of the past Where memories lay at last No one ever knows exactly why Death reaches down from the sky To take those we hold most dear Realizing our deepest darkest fear Being left here on our own So many dreams left unsown There is nothing we can do Except say that we are here for you Whenever you need a friend Whose love will never end Knowing that you can trust Any time you feel you must My thoughts are close tonight Carried to you through moonlight Reaching out to your heart Hoping to ease the aching part ---------------------------------------------------- This one goes out to my dear friend Irish Rose, who lost her mother 28 years ago today. My prayers are with you. ~Jennifer Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats [This message has been edited by Lone Wolf (edited 11-14-2000).] |

LoneWolf~ This is just the kind of gesture that makes me realize I'm in the right family circle. What a heartwarming gesture done for a wonderful woman. *Hugs* to you both. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
