In Memory of You
I find an old photograph and see your smile.
As I feel your presence anew,
I am filled with warmth
and my heart remembers love. I read an old card sent many years ago
during a time of turmoil and confusion. The soothing words written
then still caress my spirit and bring me peace.
I remember who you used to be the laughter
we shared and wonder what you have become.
Where are you now,
Where did you go,
When the body is left behind and the spirit is released to fly?
Perhaps you are the morning bird singing joyfully at sunrise, or the butterfly
that dances so carelessly on the breeze or the rainbow of colors
that brightens a stormy sky or the fingers of afternoon mist
delicately reaching over the mountains or the final few rays of the setting sun
lighting up the skies edging the clouds with a magical glow.
I miss your being but I feel your presence,
In whatever form you choose to take, however you now choose to be.
Your spirit has become for me a guardian angel on high guiding,
advising, and watching over me.
I remember you.
You are with me and I am not afraid.

In Loving Memory of Carmen Luisa Abraham
If Roses Grew In Heaven
If Roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my niece Meleny's arms and tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart that will never go away.
