Literature Text

The sky once smiled upon an earth
Blessed by your tender presence

And now we look to the same sky
As we wonder why?

A river cried below
A mountain of grief

But through this all
We will come to see
That the sky still smiles
Down upon us all

For you live on
In the hearts of many

Oh Dearly Departed
The world has gained
Simply by knowing you
Just a short while ago I was sitting and waiting at the doctor's office (turns out I have sinus infection - I got me some meds) and I started to think about the young woman who passed away, And these brief words came to me. I hope you will read them and visit her site to pay respects.

It also reminded me of another poem I wrote last year when I learned that a good friend of mine lost her daughter in an automobile accident. That poem is called "Hello Again" and can be found here: [link]
