"A Pledge of Remembrance"




The moments of life happen always...
With or without us...
Some are reflective
Others are best forgotten
And on some less memorable occasions...
Push us beyond the realm of understanding
My heart and thoughts tug at one another
As this profound sadness wells up within my being
A large branch of our family tree has fallen silent...
Tears of mourning hold you now at rest
All memories now seem bittersweet
A pledge of remembrance is made
Honoured and proud am I to be part of you
Though grief holds us now...
You now dwell eternally free
Shinning bright down upon us
The pale moon and yellow stars
And every day within the vibrantly golden sun
We carry your spirit with us
Now and throughout the remaining days of our lives
With peace and grace taught by you...
As unbearable as it is...
We make this journey forward without you
Your absence leaves a large hole in your place
And just like the sky...
Its spread over everything...
