Who is this spirit

Who is this spirit who sits with me?


I sit here quietly listening to the wind


I see many walking and looking but

Who is this one sitting with me?


Flower I brought but everyone looking at me like what are you doing?


I hear the spirit tell me never mind them

So I block them and only listen to the spirit who talks to me

She is a lady who is dear to my heart


The flowers I bring are her favorite


Matching the bench we always sat on when we was at home


Many hours go by and we talk as each day came


She taught me so many things


Now it is time for me to sit here and listen to my mommy also

Two bouquets of flowers for the two most beautiful women in my life

One day another little girl will sit here


This time it will be three bouquets


One for her great great grandmother, her great grandmother and I her grandmother


As each generation goes,

new paint on the bench of red and flowers all over

  the grave in the family plot will be full


As generation after generation come the daughters to take care of those they love


Beautiful and carefree and live a life to the fullest till the day is no more


Wonder when the sons will do the same for their families?

 

Today I sit and visit again till the time is not for me again.








A contest entry

    SHE IS WITH YOU ALWAYS!!

    Ah, and just who is this person who is with you, sharing with you all that is this world? I may be mistaken but I also feel a spirit from time to time and know deep in my heart , my very soul where they dwell. The spirit is me, my inner being, my essence which guides me with wisdom and grace. 's

    Yes, each generation comes and holds close the love and sweet memories of their mothers and fathers. Your daughters , the beautiful family who will keep your memory strong after you are no more of this earth.'s

    I was not sure of which you were speaking of but it is these two different ideas which came and spoke to me.
