Its like the worlds stopped turning
Without you by my side
But then I look and wonder
At the changing countryside
The bright colours of the Summer
Give way to Autumns bronze and gold
The skies turn dark and miserable
And I wish I had you're hand to hold
But then a rainbow lights the sky
And brightens up the day
I'm sure you're watching over me
And you're never far away
Alison, this heart-felt poem is a beautiful way to honour the memory of a dearly departed one. I love the way that you have incorporated Mother Nature into the poem. Beautiful vivid imagery. Job well done. Congratulations on Poem Of The Day.
Losing one near and dear is a tragic experience and the thought of the beloved person resurfaces during both on happy and sombre occassions. This aspect has been encapsuled beautifully in this Beautifully poem.
A beautifully narrated longing for the loved one. Heartiest congrats on the member poem of the day.
How beautiful! But also tragically sad. Missing someone is the worst thing ever... Love this poem :)
