Heart Echoes~

I heard a whisper above the clouds

         distinctly thought I heard my name

   familiar voice of an angel floating by

      I felt it could be my heart's echo,

                 a zephyr gently cradled me

     a warm embrace from up above, I heard her say~

 

 "I'm dancing aloft peaceful stars

    do not cry big sis, please shed no more tears for me,

 I'm  always with you when you're perfectly still, 

           listen contently for an extra beating in your heart

          I flutter there quiet and content, i have from the start"

With that, there was a sun shower of diamond constellations

         my spirit danced with starry harmony that fateful night, 

     eternal echoes, heart to heart, she  lovingly lingers aside me

Author's Note

For my sister Lee, she always called me 'big sis', never more than a heartbeat away...

Oh Frieda...there is a lot of heartache and a LOT of love in this powerful poem. I was swallowing back tears when i realized what it was about. This seems like it was a piece written in healing...but then again, aren't they all? I like the back and forth set up, to set apart the different voices. And the ending line about her lingering beside you...because its true. They never really us. They are always in our hearts. Thinking of you.

Always in my heart yes, would much rather her by my side again, thanks for your sentiments here Kristin.

Beautiful Frieda, softly this flows to our eyes and our hearts as we cry for you. This is one of your best in my opinion and I believe every word of it...my wish is that you do as well.
