TERRY

By Sherry Sheaffer

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

TERRYWhen the thought of you eases in, Tripping memories soft,I think about the time we had, About the time we lost.Each one that was left behind,Has one more thing to say.The 'ONLY IFS' grow more whimsical,With each passing day.Four years it has been yetTime cannot diminish,The endless store of dreams I haveFor the life you didn't finish.Where your wandering has taken you,I pray for peaceful things,Fair weather and fair friends,Gentle winters, welcome springs.Summers warm and sunny,Falls with different hues,Tender moments in a moonlit sky,Is my wish for you.Till the tide flows around us each,Our bonds once more whole,I will watch as the eagle fliesFor it is the keeper of your soul.
