Sometimes, I think back to that summer he flew away and simply CANNOT believe he was restored to us again--yet I was the one who believed I would find him and then I did! So where has this kind of faith gone, anyway?
This poem was in that book she gave me five years ago....
June 1991 - Oct 2007)
A lovely, lilting melody
enchanted me
as I walked along the lane.
Stretching on tiptoe,
encircling the tree,
I tried to see the tiny songster.
Sunshine splashed gold
upon my face.
Shadows danced
with the breeze.
And though thick foliage
hid the little bird,
it could not hide his song.
There is a veil that
separates us, too,
since you have gone.
But, unlike that little unseen bird,
I still can hear
your song.
