I Heard A Voice

 

I heard the voice of the most blessing deed

My dear little sister’s voice

It still races through my veins

Making my skin shiver

 

Those tears I shed silently that day

Were those of tears of joy

For I never thought I’d hear

That lovely little voice again

 

Smiling the whole time

As you talked

About how school is going for you

Or about your 3 new brothers

 

How lovely it was

To hear that sing-song voice of yours

Bringing the best side out of everyone around you

Bringing every one around you together at last

 

Where had the time gone

Seven already

Wow, my mind must have blown out the window

Since that time I saw you

 

No ever saw those silent tears

I shed just for you that day

Oh, how my heart still aches

Just to see your bright and cheery face

 

The face that I haven’t seen

For almost three years

How I wish for you to have been by my side

That night that I heard you voice

 

But alas

I shall only be blessed

To see the lovely young lady are

In my dreams

 

Hopefully

We shall soon

Meet again and maybe

This time you’ll stay by my side.

well done! loved it

[Coyote Poetry]

We need to hold on to the good times and memories. I had to read the poem a few times to grasp the complete sadness. A powerful poem. I'm like you. I want to meet people missed again and walk together and laugh. A excellent poem. Thank you.

absolutly heartwrenching

[Tyler Allen]

You do a great job of creating a sad and touching story, and a character that is sweet enough to make your audience feel the anguish of not being able to see her. Great vivid descriptions, overall, a great piece.
Good job with this poem

[Linzey]

I like how sad this is, but brings such beautiful thoughts and happy times. I am so happy that I was able to read this.

[FleetingReveries]

So sad, but very well written. I very much like the idea of the tears shed just for a sister, tears that no one else saw. Sisters are so very dear

[Sarah McConnaughey]
