There are ties that are lost
as we pass through this earth
as time dims our memories
the songs, the mirth
but I find that between two
who’ve ever realized
a moment of happiness together
there yet lies
a connection, a thread
that may never be lost…
Across time’s silence
through distance and space
even into the emptiness that heals our pain
a slim silver thread will still remain
upon that thread travel hopes and fears
upon that thread, the days, long years
patiently waiting for a resonant ring…
and then it comes.

glad to still be in touch, Kimberly...

Beautiful tribute, I like the word play, it shows emotional connection, beautiful imagery and simply a lovely dedication. Nicely penned.

Beautifully written. I enjoyed this so much. There are connections that move the spirit and revel in the art of being united. This piece is such a wonderful orchestration of this type of union. Wonderful poetry, but then, what else could it be?
I am so pleased to have read such a beautiful piece this morning. ~Pamela

This is endearing dear son. Me, Bel, and Kim share a special treasure in YOU! I know you left Kimberly in tears. Well you can say you set a record. You had me, Kimberly, and Bel all bawling today, with each other and individually. We love you and each other. What a connection! This is beauteous!
Always Loving YOU ♥
