[hometext] => On this date, when I was just an infant, someone in my family died to whom I barely knew... and I hadn't gotten a chance to know. He's been gone for most of my short life, but when I think of my Poppy, it always brings me tears...
[bodytext] => The man that I remember from photographs, where I'm sitting on his knee, the diplomatic, even-tempered figured I remember vaguely I was only two years old when god took him from this life the cancer had overtaken him making a widow of his wife "He would have been so proud of you", everyone says for he loved you very much, He'd walk me in my stroller to the tennis courts and such. I've been told so much about him from Ireland to fighting in WW two but I didn't know him personally for I was fairly new How I wish I knew him better! than just those few short years and whatever people have told me about him, has brought me into tears. I think about my Poppy and if he can see from up above I wonder what he thinks of me and if he sends his love. Poppy, I wish you were here to see me be something great to see my big life events, to see me graduate. But I know you're watching for heaven up in the sky... down on your favorite granddaugter... telling her not to cry [comments] => 3 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 39 [informant] => Serendippitty [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 28 [ratings] => 6 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

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. ©
