The Home Down The Road

Topic: Grief

There's a home down the road that's broken
in two.
A home filled with love; a tribute to you.
Silence echoes through rooms where you
used to be; but sweet memories linger;
they're so precious to me.
Our hearts, brimming with sorrow, will miss
you, my friend.
You fought so courageously right to the end.
She was loved by so many; each one of us
here,
she loved you all, too, our Sharon so dear.

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. ©
