Just a bit of melancholy, missing my sons and my brother.  I am alright, but … there are just those days.

 Tears of Joy
© By Kathy Armijo


 


Remembering when …
I cry
Tears of joy


Thinking back on happy times
I cry
Tears of joy


Wishing you were here
I cry
Tears of joy


Longing to meet you in heaven
I cry
Tears of joy


Your love has filled me with delight
As I hang onto memories with all my might
Knowing one day – it will all be right


I cry
Tears of joy
Because you enriched my life

Kathy,
You are so fortunate to have had them in your life. Rejoice in the fact that their spirits are with you and guiding and protecting you. It is the only way to live a full life..I do it everyday. I miss Matthew so much, but I know he is with me in spirit.. You are an amazing and beautiful soul. I thank my higher power everyday for friends like you.
Peace, love, and light,
Amber "Vivianna"

Kathy--have your time and then go outside. Its beautiful today.
Simple words for simple feelings. I miss you. Simple as that.
Nothing deep. Nothing needs to be worked out. Just where you are.
I can relate to this.
Love ya--RaeLynn

Kathy,

Loving someone with every fiber of your being is a special love that no one can ever deny you. The idle moments are those that open doors to our memories but it's always great to reflect on the goodness that touches our lives. God Bless You with His Peace, Love and Blessings Always, Paul.

A little bit of sadness wrapped in longing tenderness and nourished by the rain of few tears.

Kathy, my eyes are filled with tears after reading this. I, too, lost a son four years ago. I know the words of which you speak. There are days when the pain feels so close. Your words here are beautiful and offer comfort, because the knowledge that one day we will be together again, eases the pain. I wrote a poem a few days ago called In Dreams. Most people imagined it to be a romantic poem, and I'm happy that people interpret my poetry in a way that it means something to them. But the truth is that it was written for my son. God Bless you, Kathy.
