Since Margret’s passing in Januuary 2016 a void was left for us all that loved her. Her laugh, her perceptive nature just knowing what to say. The way her life reflects still in the three boys Steven, Philip and Matthew. These words I found by just a simple question re my thoughts back to this day in 2016 and to the day in 1970 when we were married and began our life together for over 44 yrs.
Margaret
A vacant chair, a silent room,
Where echoes dance, a haunting gloom.
A heart that aches, a tear that falls,
A love that lingers, through it all.
The laughter’s gone, the smile no more,
A void so deep, a gaping door.
In memories held, a bittersweet sting,
The joy we shared, the love we’d bring.
The sun still shines, the world moves on,
But in my heart, a song is gone.
I search for you in every breeze,
In whispered words, in rustling trees.
Though pain may linger, I will rise,
With love as guide, beyond the skies.
To cherish moments, hold them near,
And carry on, with love so clear.
For in the loss, a strength is found,
A bond that ties, where love is bound.
And though you’re gone, your spirit stays,
A guiding light, through darkest days.
I find it difficult to cope at times but the words reflect a resilience to cope through cherished memories and the enduring power of love.
God bless you my love up there in heaven.
