This was written as a heart felt memory and I would like to share it. The paintings were created by the Author of this poem along with Mother, Daughter & Son pictures added to the pictures.
On March 16, was the end of Winter and the beginning of Spring. Her life ended this day, but she began a new. Anything can happen in the blink of an eye. May you always treasure your memories.
Heart Strings
Not a day that passes by
In the blink of an eye
With your life that’s rearranged
In everything it’s changed
Learning things from all you know
Emotions rise and flow
Two of us she raised from birth
Now gone from this old earth
Memories of good and old
In life they shape and mold
Barely through the winter’s chill
Spring time buds renew and fill
Heart strings is the key
That’s hiding deep within me
There are days it’s hard I know
Some days I know it shows
Heart strings pull that never mend
Binding ways never end
Brightly shining in our sight
Her presence fills the light
Not a moment passes by
Maybe a tear or sigh
Memories of good and old
In life they shape and mold
Barely through the winter’s chill
Spring time buds renew and fill
Heart strings is the key
That’s hiding deep within me
On this day she spread her wings
In Heaven’s skies she sings
Deeply locked within my heart
Let no one take apart
Memories of good and old
In life they shape and mold
Barely through the winter’s chill
Spring time buds renew and fill
Every day the sun still shines
As time and space aligns
Though she’s felt within this place
Through God’s amazing grace.
Memories of good and old
In life they shape and mold
When springtime blooms in each year
I know that you are near.
Heart strings is the key
That’s hiding deep within me
