Remembrance

Those dates that changed our lives, we can’t forget;

We capture souls of dear ones in our net …

Sweet memories lie treasured on the shore

Recalled with touching poignancy once more…

 

Though brief, such moments brighten up our dark

As the warmth of those we loved still lights a spark

In the deep recesses of our mind

And somehow makes their passing less unkind.

 

The longer that we live, the more we fear

The losing of all those whom we hold dear

But this is how life is, we soon will go

With the hope in time, we too will glow …
