I bend down and whisper in your ear
"I love you and be strong;
you know right where you belong."
All eyes turning puffy and red,
we waited for you next to your hospital bed
Until you passed on right before our eyes
Listen closely, hear the soft cries
Oh, please God, listen to me
Keep him safe, keep him free
Now many years have gone past
Still thinking of the day I saw you last
Wondering if I'll meet you in a better place
Counting the days when I'll see your face
Goodbye, our love will keep us together
In my heart you will be forever and ever

There You Are

There you are, lying here
I bend down and whisper in your ear
"I love you and be strong;
you know right where you belong."
All eyes turning puffy and red,
we waited for you next to your hospital bed
Until you passed on right before our eyes
Listen closely, hear the soft cries
Oh, please God, listen to me
Keep him safe, keep him free
Now many years have gone past
Still thinking of the day I saw you last
Wondering if I'll meet you in a better place
Counting the days when I'll see your face
Goodbye, our love will keep us together
In my heart you will be forever and ever

You express your feelings so well, and with great flow...on all the poems of yours I have read

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

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. ©
