In Memory Poem

Holding Onto Memories

In memory of all family members who have passed but are never forgotten...people who have inspired me throughout my life. It's funny, you think of them with a smile; then you think of their passing with a heavy heart and sadness. But to bring myself back to today, I go back to things they've done to make me smile.

I wish my Meme had not passed. It has been five years since that fateful and really sad day.

Back To The Start

Step into a memory,
Of all the years that have passed.
Remember all the good times,
The ones locked in to last.
Sometimes your heart has broken,
All shattered, torn and sad,
Like when you lose a loved one,
The best friend you had.
But memories last a lifetime,
They are planted in your heart,
So look at all the sad things,
Then turn them to the start,
To the memory of the time that passed,
The times that made you laugh.
