FAMILY PORTRAIT
~
One big fat family
In one frame
All together as one
A remembrance
To share back on
Time to remember
Some sad
Even happy faces see
The family portrait
Some know
Other dont for faded
Even are way before your time
Two boxes full
Come see
Pictures of special time
New birth
Are a weddin
Family
Be still in
The portrait
Love the view see
Happy faces and all big smiles

Beautiful choice Bettie and Bob…thank you Brenda for the wonderful share.
Cherish the moment
for it’s swift
gather the hearts
before sands do shift
each smile each embrace
pocket away
to share and reflect
memories of days…

Have a beautiful Sunday my friends…….

ALWAYS CLOSE AND HELD WITHIN
They’re never far away,
precious family of mine,
enveloped within my heart
and cradled deep inside;
visions so often recalled,
of the life we’ve shared,
remembered always
and never forgotten,
never out of sight,
never far away.
Reminiscences of the journey
taken together as family,
from here to there
along life’s path,
as we’re bound together,
our lives happily entwined
as our love forever grows,
cocooned and sheltering
outside and within.
And know that though years
and miles may separate us,
you’re never, ever far away,
always so very close
and held within my heart.

UPLIFTED
Kids at the top of the stair
reflect years of loving care
of parents and each other
whether sister or brother.
Raised to such height over years
of diligent doting dears.
Bright white beams focussed upon
those who help color their dawn.
Confidence beams from each face
assured of a prominent place
within loved ones’ hearts for all time,
recorded in image, and rhyme.

Ethereal Memories
Ethereal Memories fluttering incessantly about my mind’s eye
tears flowing secretly inwardly yearning for sweet days gone by
knowing life must continually move on no choice but to advance
recollections of time past keeping me prisoner in a watery trance.
wishing to be awaking from this miserable soul wrenching dream
each and every day struggling , No there can be no escaping scream
sweet faces appear thru intense fog beckoning me back to their worldly glow
delicate voices serenading, enticing me from the deep darkness within my soul
Ethereal Memories I must lay rest So I might exist in the world and in the light
Until they come fluttering back in when my eyes close during the dark of night
