With Memories Wrapped Around Me

Living among the shadows
Wind in the new Spring leaves
I finally reawaken.
Gone is the one who grieves.
 
I suddenly thought about you,
And realized you are gone.
But life is still full around me
And parts of you linger on.
 
I hear you at dawn.  I listen
As you say it’s time to go
On with the dreams we once had.
Now it is time to grow
 
Just like the earth around me.
There’s so much life to give.
With memories wrapped around me
I can begin to live.

    1. Thank you Karen. Russ was my best friend for over 41 years. I lost him so suddenly it took a while to adjust.
