TILL WE MEET AGAIN
Slowly, quietly, the days have slipped by
tumbling together, till they became a year.
A year without you, can that be true
can you really have left us all behind?
I cannot remember a time
when you weren't helping others
sometimes at great cost to your family time
or even your health
though you would never let on.
You left us a great legacy
of caring for others, of doing your best
of sharing whatever you could...
but most of all, your love of family.
Rest peacefully with Mum, Dad..
till we meet again.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Jill...
DeleteThanks for your post Chris my mother has been gone for 6 months and I can't believe how quickly time has gone -a beautiful post
ReplyDeleteThank you, Helen...Time does wander past almost as if it doesn't want to be noticed. If you wander through and look for Blue Candle you will see my original tribute to Dad and to Mum... Mum has been gone for 33 years... It still hurts, but you learn to live with it and wrap yourself in the happy memories.
DeleteA beautiful tribute to your dad Chris. Xx
