i am not gone
My girlfriend of 48 years let me know this morning that her mom passed away, yesterday. I've known this woman since I was ten years old,she was as a second mother to me, while growing up. I wrote this for Sharon. i am not gone where the sun is sucked into the seas and darkness meets them both, where mountains kiss the clouds and trees stretch to become a part of it; at the very rim of life, itself, to which we travel only once, this is where you will again discover me. where flowers grow wild and rainy winds blow, where the moon waltzes with stars, in canyons whose walls are stained with the light of a coral sunrise, where clear and icy cold creek waters race from the beginning to the end of their paths, so shalli wait there for you. iwill live on, in the love of your hearts iwill brush the hair from your fevered brows and whisper your names in your ears. love me, feel me nearby and hear my voice, but live on, as the living do; I am not gone, just patiently waiting for you. 08-26-10 ©tlp 2010
