Too many ships have come and gone
sailing sea after raging sea
From within I knew only too
well that the storm was not
going to weather your sails
Endlesslly, pacing with fear
fighting to reason with my sanity
Well knowing that upon this
vessel would be its last voyage
Withered and windblown my heavy
heart like the abandoned ship
signaling for your warmth once
again to enlighten its dark shadow
A Good many seas have come
and gone since that fatefull day,
and a good many more shall
come after, however NEVER
shall I sail as I once sailed
in your harbor.........

This is a wonderful poem. You describe exactly how my mother felt (and still feels) when my dad passed. A truly moving poem. Thanks again.
