Captured in a moment …
a smile, a touch
that means so much.
The glint in your eyes -
a flash of lightning
across darkened skies.
The fluttering wings
of butterflies.
Captured in a moment …
A glance, and a turn of the hand
that says “I understand.”
A wistful sigh
that means goodbye.
That last heartbeat
and a falling tear –
Captured in a moment …
“Sleep well my dear.”
Lovely words Val, keep writing to heal your fragile heart. How wonderful to have captured these memories. Perhaps you could tell us your late husbands name. Hope this does not offend it would just be nice to know when reading your words. Thank You X
Touch Means so much. Feelings beautifully expressed. Please keep it going.
A glance, and a turn of the hand that says “I understand.” This is something that we miss so much with the loved one gone! Some one to tell us.... 'I understand'! I can guess the depth of your loss in these lines!
When love is gone, How hard to bear, To express the love, To one not there. However You have been able to express in your, inimitable way, the love, the memory, and what you fee for him that's gone away. I cry. forgive me
And be like this... write like this Valerie. The capturing must go on.
