High on a Shelf I put my heart in a box Placed it high on a shelf Where it will be safe with Loving memories of you. When I’m filled with sorrow I’ll peek inside the box Feel my grieving heart and Remember joy with you. When I’m filled with anger I’ll peek inside the box Feel my heart hurting and Remember happiness with you. When I’m filled with fear I’ll peek inside the box Feel my lonely heart and Remember feeling safe with you. It will be safe on the shelf In a beautifully carved box My heart beating strongly For the day I will be with you. Deborah Ann Tornillo Copyright© 2010

I think we should all have one of these boxes and store evry special memory of the ones we love. It is so easy for a thousand days of happiness and laughter to be erased by one angry argument or mistake...your box of love treasure may overcome that for many.

You are so wise to record your journey and share it with others. Your poetry would make a wonderful book for anyone facing the loss of someone they love.
This is a beautiful write; you show the beuty of keeping memories warm and the hope of looking forward to being together again.
Love,
Connie
