Poetry: Him

by Linda Scarlett

Created on: December 08, 2009

What Remains?


He's gone...what remains?

His name - every day on my lips.

His memory - etched forever in my heart.

His love - anchored deep in my soul.

His songs - alive in my head.

His beauty - in my mind's eye always.

His strength - empowers my personage.

His words - still captivate my mind.


He's gone...what remains?

Everything that he was,

Everything that we were!

Everything that he did - will always dwell beautifully in my soul


He's gone...what remains?

His beautiful, purposeful, powerful and loving memory!

I love you, David.

_____________

Dedicated to my husband of 30 years.

David passed away on January 14, 2009, after a 3 month battle with liver cancer.

He was so brave and never complained - He just kept telling me how much he loved his life with me and didn't want to leave me alone.
