Love after Death

Somewhere between dusk

and the light of dawn

your spirit still lingers

like sweet perfume.

 

Your ways though quiet

were oh so strong

that I think you are here

even after you’re gone.

A spiritually invigorating short write, gone but never forgotten, emotively penned!

Ps Dara, you should have a peep at my poem, ' Bury me by the dogwood tree ' I think it's similar in theme to your very own poem here ?

[Dara]

Thank you, I would love to read it.

Oh Dara...you have touched my heart with this one...how often I feel my mother here with me...it is comforting. Your words are lovely.

I am so glad you found comfort in these words, Julie. She will always be with you.

Love and love's lingering longing and that longing's relentless inspiration.
Just a few words to reveal so much. Another soulful creation, dear Dara.

[Dara]

Thank you. You have described it to a 't'. Your kindness means so much!

[Misery]

Always welcome.
