She no longer remembers who we are Or exactly where she is Now she lies helpless slowly losing her grasp on life Her eyes once a vibrant blue Have faded to a dull grey Kneeling there by her side tears streaming down my face She wipes them says child do not weep for me I have fulfilled my purpose in this life And am moving on to a better place I whisper grandma please tell me again how life tastes A little life springs back to her eyes as she begins to speak She says life tastes like the laughter of those that you love Like the cry of a newborn babe And the souls of a million unsung heros Like the coo of a snow white dove It tastes like the purest snow falling in winter And the hottest summer sun Cool as the moon beams that float free in the vast night sky It tastes like the love that only kindred spirits can share child Her voice barely a whisper now she says life tastes bitter at times, but it can also taste sweet...oh so very sweet With a smile on her face her eyes close And the last drop of life fades from her [comments] => 4 [counter] => 254 [topic] => 25 [informant] => suzy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
