Missing Piecesremember
when the world falls apart
remember
it falls into puzzle pieces
that over time
will find their way
back together
and remember most of all
you are still in my heart
when friends disappear
remember
the door that closes
need not be locked
from either outside or in
and remember most of all
you will always find me here
when love cools from flame to frost
remember
winter's winds
will soon be chased away
by warming breezes
and remember most of all
true love can never be lost
when days of gold begin to rust
remember
all the parcels of our past
were mostly glitter and unravelled bows
that opened to a more precious gift
and remember most of all
life continues beyond our passing into dust

Beautiful... and I will remember.
ReplyDeleteYES!! Kennedy is back :-)
oops, I meant I will remember these lessons as they could relate to my own life
DeleteHaha...now I'm confused...
DeleteWell, I didn't want it to look like I thought you were addressing this to me personally. I loved this poem. It's always a nice experience getting lost in your words dear one.

I suppose most of us feel we are indispensable to some extent; and perhaps, to those closest to us, we are, at present. But, after a given period of mourning and adjustment, upon our passing, life will go on for them without us. May we leave them with a good spirit, which will in some measure, large or small, help guide them on their way.

Such beautiful thoughts. Thank you, Manfred.
DeleteI'm almost certain someone is hiding a few pieces to the puzzle ...
ReplyDeletePossibly, but from another point of view, maybe all the important pieces are there.
