[hometext] => This is a poem my best friends mother wrote for me. It has now been 13 years since I lost my Father whom I was very close to. I'm now married & have a wonderful 4 year old son. Tho my son never met his Grandfather he still talks about him like he has known him forever.
[bodytext] => I imagined a conversation between Jim and Old Joe. I imagined them speaking in voices soft and low. I heard Joe say. "Tell jodie, My little girl. That my spirit is with her in this world. Tell her I think of her every day. Remind her to still do things the Indian way. Tell her I hear my Grandson tell me good night. Whispering to the stars at twilight. Tell her I wish I taught him to ride. Tell her I know she somtimes cried. And I'm sorry I'm not there to tell them both how much I care. Tell her the Angels up here have seen me shed a lonely tear. Jim, please make her understand That my plans for her were so grand I was called away before I was through God had plans I couldn't undo. Tell her I named a star for her & the boy. Tell them they are my pride and joy. I imagined Jim told him, "You know I will Joe" and I'll stick around to see how things go.

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. ©
