Moisturizing Memories ~*Marge Tindal*~ One tiny teardrop looking for a place to fall Seeking a cheek to caress in total recall~ And should it trickle past a smile you left for me to reclaim You are a memory I won't soon forget Knowing that though you are gone, always you will remain~ One droplet of sweet remember, moisturizing your memory Bringing you back to dwell within the very heart of me~ Tears and smiles are all I have in this soul of kindred keeping All you were and all I am are shed within this weeping~ And though I shed each of you in a different sweep of time's command Cumulatively I remember when you each held my hand~ Someday the smiles will outnumber the tears but, until they do God knows that I was blessed to be touched by each of you~ ~*~ Grandma Wainright~How many times you come to play in my heart~ Daddy~Here too short ... gone too long~ Granddaddy~ Your memory is as tall as the cast of your shadow~ Brother Mike~Oh, Mike ... most of all, most of all~ Michelle Lynette Barr~ Angel child of my heart .. a blessing you were to me~ Little Granny~Tightly held with squeezing heart-hugs~ Hilda Isaly~ Nanny ... you left so many smiles~ Mother~Fragrance of rose or a butterfly in flutter .. brings you back to me~ Aunt Mimi~ Oh, my ... how precious the smiles of remember~ Joseph R. Pearce~More than teacher .. you gave me reason to believe in myself~ Sister Shari~Too short the wick ... but, oh how you glowed~ ~*~ Flipping through this Rolodex of December-In-Remember I thank God for the beauty of each etching on my heart. Believing that, far beyond time, they share in the true of who I am, gives me reason to be thankful for the gift of remember~ *December 2003* A gentle December-In-Remember ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |

You bring back my own calendar of remembers, of tears that still sometimes fall.....of a soft sigh as a moment comes to mind, a touch is felt inside...I have my own list that grows slowly...until one day I will be a part of another one....held tenderly by my children.... Thanx for the beauty of this Marge... |

Well woven personification of a simple teardrop. Fallen in sadness, yes, but also with a modicum of joy, as each memory remembered recalls the ripples still spreading from their rock tossed in the waters of Creation. And yes, there will be a time when the smiles outnumber the tears, though that may not be on this mortal coil. |

Tears and smiles are all I have in this soul of kindred keeping All you were and all I am are shed within this weeping~ How I understand... how beautifully you've written your tears. *S* |

Thanks to each of you for your tender messages~ Each remember brings a tear ... yet each tear brings some joy in knowing that they have all gone to a far greater place in His gather of angels~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
