![]() Floating AshesA Poem by unclecharlie
I have necklaces hanging all over the place
And pictures so I can still see her face Plus just one message saved to hear her voice These are the things I saved by only my choice I have a pillow where she once laid her head The spoon I used when she needed to be fed Many memories of all the games we used to play Fresh in my mind like it was just yesterday Spread some of her ashes in a small lagoon Told her I loved her and I'd see her soon That is when the picture became some what blurred The ashes were floating and that's just absurd As the center turned like a little tidal wave Then fell out while the rest floated away These ashes only floated just maybe a foot or two Sank turning the water a bright shade of blue I raised my head and looked at the sky above Thanked God for showing us all of his Love!
