[hometext] => Do you ever wonder?
[bodytext] => The days are fading down to the finale Hours sing in harmony with life's song Was my life spent well or squandered badly Did I do enough good or created too much wrong When I'm gone, will my husband truly know How his smile could light up my whole world Or know that his touch made my body glow Around him, my whole being was twirled Will he know that when I gazed upon his face All I wanted to do was wonder at my luck That he choose me in the gambit of Love's race In his arms is where I remain safely tucked When I'm gone, will my children truly understand I loved them before they were even a thought I couldn't believe we created something so grand Their happiness, joy, a battle endlessly fought My daughter, my emerald, my precious stone Did I show her how much she truly meant to me When I'm gone, will she remember the good alone Or will the clashes, bad times be all she can see When I'm gone, will she know I thought her beauty Was created from the stars; the sun lit her soul Will she know her life was more than my duty And that with her every smile, my heart she stole When I'm gone, will my son know that I treasured him Will he understand I looked at him with eyes of pride From the first I held him, joy exceeded my life's brim Does he know, even now, I still hold him deep inside We may be on different paths, so many disagreements We may not see eye to eye, heart to heart, love on hold When I'm gone, hopefully he'll see truth's statements Maybe he'll find love for me, if I may be ever so bold When I'm gone, will my precious grandson remember How very much I love him, how much I adore him Will he know that he is my life, January to December He is the light that carries me forth, never to ever dim Will he ever understand that he is the wonder of all His dreams, hopes, aspirations will always be nourished No matter what comes, I will never, ever let him fall Within my heart, he will always be forever cherished Will my other grandchildren have a fond place for me When I'm gone, will I have passed on my love for them When they look back, will they know that for me They were created by the moon and sun on a whim Three beautiful granddaughters, another mighty grandson How did I get so fortunate to be blessed with them My life has been made up of many battles never won Now to find that I've been granted this Love's gem When I'm gone, will I be remembered with fondness Or will they think of me as an unwanted person I hope that I did what God had planned, didn't digress I hope that I gave more than I took; my life well done When I'm gone, remember the good in my footsteps Remember that I loved everyone that I let into my life I hope that I gave you a smile, a laugh, no missteps I hope I gave you more love, joy, that I did strife Everyone spends a moment imaging their demise We all wonder what is it that we'll leave behind If we could see, we'd be in for a real surprise So, open your heart now; don't enter death blind [comments] => 5 [counter] => 370 [topic] => 48 [informant] => dvtpdw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

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. ©
