Array ( [sid] => 173439 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Home [time] => 2012-07-24 16:07:40 [hometext] => The hardest thing one can ever do is let go [bodytext] => All your life, you've held yourself strong
The doctor keeps saying it won't be long
So stubborn your will, can't leave us behind
Determined to protect your loves entwined

You stood tall in the face of life endangered
You carried your strength, fear never catered
Now is your time to rest; your duty is done
Home is before you, a path of one

God's arms await you; your golden home built
You can go forward, carry no inner guilt
You'll watch over us, share love from your cloud
We'll carry you within, sing your praises out loud

Man, father, brother, friend, all roles you fulfilled
Your life a success; you've done as God willed
Our love sends you forth on the wings of a butterfly
We'll try to understand although we will question why

Forever in our hearts, engrained in our souls
Tearfully say, go softly now, your bell does toll
We'll share another day, sing our loves' song
Until then, be home with God where you belong [comments] => 1 [counter] => 155 [topic] => 39 [informant] => dvtpdw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

All your life, you've held yourself strong
The doctor keeps saying it won't be long
So stubborn your will, can't leave us behind
Determined to protect your loves entwined

You stood tall in the face of life endangered
You carried your strength, fear never catered
Now is your time to rest; your duty is done
Home is before you, a path of one

God's arms await you; your golden home built
You can go forward, carry no inner guilt
You'll watch over us, share love from your cloud
We'll carry you within, sing your praises out loud

Man, father, brother, friend, all roles you fulfilled
Your life a success; you've done as God willed
Our love sends you forth on the wings of a butterfly
We'll try to understand although we will question why

Forever in our hearts, engrained in our souls
Tearfully say, go softly now, your bell does toll
We'll share another day, sing our loves' song
Until then, be home with God where you belong

This is so sad, yet so warm and beautiful. Really moving poem!

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. ©
