Cherish the Memories

Missing image
When the rays of the sun
wrap you in warmth,
know that is your daughter’s love
reaching out to give you comfort

When the roses bloom
and flowers abound everywhere,
know that is her beauty
being shown to give you solace

When the birds sing
in a chorus of music,
know that is her voice
letting your ears hear
she is at peace.

Take comfort in knowing
that she is all around you,

in the warmth of the memories
the beauty of her soul
in the songs of the heart where love dwells.

Author notes

May your cherished memories surround you during your time of sorrow.

    That is the sort of natural philosphy and comfort I often feel at such sorrowful times. You said it well.

      thank you islekine - I hope they can find a little comfort in these thoughts. I know after my dad passed away, I watched for a certain bird outside mom's window - it would come several times a day and perch on the branches. After mom passed away, we had gone out to pick up her personal belongings - and glancing out her window, we saw 2 of those birds - had to smile because all we could think of was that they both were together now....

      Thank you so much 'Denerica' - I think these thoughts came from what I want my own family to know - that when I am gone, I will still be around for them in the beauty of nature and their memories.
