He will be...

He will be forever summer,
a warm, floral scented breeze,
blue skies and single clouds,
clouds that drift slowly, silently, to a place unknown,
perhaps to where he now rests, peacefully,
with those that went before...

He will be an aching heart and tears,
a pain that only time can heal,
a chasm to be filled with memories,
memories of childhood days,
of sibling love, laughter,
of all that is good in life,
in mankind.

He will be stories and smiles,
a warm glow,
dreams,
loved,
loved,
loved...

and forever missed.

Death affects us all in so many ways. These are words that help to ease the grief but explains the love that will remain in your heart forever. Lovely poem.

A sad but very gentle and love filled refrain written in flowing, glowing freeverse style.

Thank you John.

This is extremely touching. So raw- get vividly meaningful and causes self examination of my own life and who “will I be?”

[Gee]

Thank you Melissa

This is a truly heartfelt and melancholic (understandably) commemorating the Dear departed.

Thank you for sharing such personal aspect of your life. And may The Creator of all souls keep you strong and safe!

Well done!
