Larry, I am sorry it's taking me this long to write something. Sometimes, when things are so emotional, I have to step back awhile or I am consumed with the grief, or whatever the feeling, as well. I hope you like this. This isn't my best but says what I want to say and was trying to show that without taking so long. You can find her in nature. Like with my daughter, she did not pass away, but is gone and nature brought her a little closer to me. In Any Language Some say sacred comes from just the physical I believe it comes from moments that's touched you inside Don't allow this grief to be anymore then the loss you endured Simply don't let it tug towards that forever good-bye... Allow the waters that run down your so kind face To be the memories of the both you together In any language both sadness and happiness can be found When you find your reality and its forever... That love of her can plague you from just about anything Let her heart be what wakes you through that sunrise And, remember, just remember, sweet Friend The rising sun can never die... So, you can grasp at what used to be Engraved dearly within your walk left in life Allow her sun to guide you though all tomorrow's And, on into the deepest of night... In any language she's heard and seen through the eyes And, once sadness eases you'll find her the same You can call on her beneath deep blue black skies And, she'll shield you from all this pouring rain... Her language of sincere will haunt you as she says to hang on And, her language of salvation will linger through your years So, remember she's with you in any language if you look And, will stroll just the same down your cheeks with those tears... I can assure your memories will last through all weather we have And, in any language, you can have her back Your fall to the knees in plead of what once was Will just remind you of her undying love.... Her voice of stillness you'll witness in those evenings And, the gentleness to the soul so very pleasing In any language she'll find you and show you're not alone And, in any language, together, you can embrace your new home... Sauni  The Only Time I See The Sun Is When I'm Within That Vanilla Breeze.The Only Time I'm One With The Sun Is When He Shelters Me From The Rain.

 (tears fall down my cheeks) God Bless You sweet Saunni, we all understand and it is never too late to show your loving heart, I understand how sometimes we are at a loss of words and it takes time to think it over! (BIG HUGGGSSSSSSS) We will always remember Ginger, for her love is in every language and her love is so true and nothing can ever change that between Ginger and Larry and us all! You are a true angel, sweet friend, we're all so blessed to have you as a true friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

'That love of her can plague you from just about anything Let her heart be what wakes you through that sunrise And, remember, just remember, sweet Friend The rising sun can never die...' ...Beautiful words from a beautiful poet; emotions are brimming out of this poem - I hope whatever inspired the peom is not causing you too much pain... A poet in pain, will search in vain, for things they need, But may never gain . ... remember happiness is in your soul; you just have to look deep behind the pain . Great poem . L.of.L. Tom .

Saunni, I do believe this is a Keeper. Not only have you touched on one person's grief, and allowed a sense of hope to permeate him this point forward, so have you written a universal poem, one that can be given to anyone, anytime, for most any deep loss... You, my dear, have done a great service, and I am very proud to call you Poet... |

Saunni, I had indeed missed this. I'm so pleased you let me know it is here. ============================================== Her voice of stillness you'll witness in those evenings And, the gentleness to the soul so very pleasing In any language she'll find you and show you're not alone And, in any language, together, you can embrace your new home... ============================ You know I adore every verse, I'd pick them all. So much comfort packed into this wonderful poem. It will be your best in my heart always. How kind and how touching. I will always cherish this dear friend. From the bottom of my heart know your timing is perfect. |

Saunni, Time...it is a lovely thing. I'm glad you took yours.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
