Save

Even after death, in the after life, love waits. When burden of a loss becomes so heavy, the spirit which never leaves is but there to comfort.
Drifts my soul gently across the blistering sand Hours absorbed in my hearts command As the sunset falls into twilight Gently the suds of the tide caress my feet 'Tis here, this spot, we use to meet I glance into the night's darken sea Remembering your lips Your breath touching me 'Tis here our hearts fell passionately in Love Now, I'm one of the Angels from above I've carried with me my only Love Waiting till Heaven's destiny calls 'Tis this night many moons ago You pull me from the tides a shore Baring a loss of sweet surrender There were no rings to bind our Love There you stand staring into the sea Longing to caress our Love, meant to be 'Tis no time that can erase Our destined Love, waiting again to be Copyright 2005

Thanks for this heartfelt poem. It says all I know and have been thinking about since Tom died. It encourages me to look forward to my future and keeping Tom's spirit within me is the way to keep going on day by day. This says nothing but the truth and the truth shall make us free. Love never leaves with out loved ones gone ahead.

A gift from God: Forever in love.

I feel it. I know it. It waits for me.

"The future holds no dread for heaven is just ahead."

As for your recommendation I decided to check out this title and I am pleased I did. The issue of life after death and love after death is one that captures the imagination of all writers from time to time but your smooth lines, loping rythem and sureal images make this poem one of the best on the subject. Well done Deb.
