A River Of Love

Today's so sad I can't escape the pain within my soul
I sit and cry and wonder why...why you had to go?

Then I close my eyes and realise you are always there
within my heart and soul as I say a gentle prayer

You are a butterfly that floats by on a summers breeze
A meadow full of flowers swaying gently and carefree

The wind that rustles leaves crowning tall tall trees
The sun, the stars, the moon the ebbing of the sea

You are the river of  love that flows deep through the heart of me
my precious daughter your beautiful essence is caught in all of these

God had other plans for you that meant we could not meet
I'll love you for eternity Megan that will never cease

  • Thank you for the beautiful poem. I'm sorry to hear that you were never blessed with the oportunity to meet your daughter. Your poem reminds me alot of the song I'm Already There by Lonestar. Thank you for entering my contest and good luck.

    *sigh*

    I suddenly feel very somber reading this. Terrific material here. I am terribly sorry about your daughter. By the way, glad you liked my comment on your other poem. Great job, as always.

    So Very Sad

    This is stunningly sad. A very heartfelt and heartwrenching piece of writing from deep inside of you. Your emotions pour through in this piece. As does your pain and anguish. But rest assured, she is with you always, even if you do not believe that she is, she is with you.

    A VERY SAD & EMOTIONAL PIECE - TO SAY THE LEAST!

    The death of a small child alway brings tears of pain and sorrow to anyone with a heart and soul - and particularly to his or her Mother who feels a pain and emptiness that none of us could ever imagine. It makes me sad to hear that you have been sad today, dear friend. Your daughters essence is everywhere as you know - in the many wonders of nature - and always deep inside your maternal heart and soul!
    Peace & Love!
    Earl.

    I echo Pif's words sugar, my heart goes out to you, I can imagine nothing worse than losing a child, whatever their age.

    Be strong and you have my love...Sue
