SECRET TEAR.

A FATHER TALKS TO HIS DEAD SON

Miss T said
you appeared to her
a number of times
smiling, and says
the impression is
that you're ok.

I am pleased by that,
thinking you're all right now,
safe and sound
in that other sphere;
I am relieved
you are ok,
but sad
that you're not here.

But the journey's done,
and you are there
happy and at peace,
and I am here
moved, but
still allow
the secret tear.

It's difficult for us to grasp that a loved one is, perhaps, better off in another place...a place so full of light and wonder, so full of time and space. I rely upon Heaven to be that "better place", but at the same time, I don't wish to believe that our loved ones would want to choose being "there" instead of here, with us.

The memory of their life will always surge through us, and always move us to tears. That's how they let us know that they are ok...and that we must carry on without them. It's quite a journey, isn't it, Terry?

...bless you for sharing this!


My best,
Kelly
