****DISTANCE A GRAIN OF SAND****

the darkness of the night enfolds you
trying to hide you in its’ shadows
as i see you there within its’ curtain
answering my call to come to me
covering me soft with angel’s wings

the nights wore on and you were there
calling you  in a time of urgency
the night a cover with moonbeam light
revealing the many layers of your love

transcending time’s clockwork hands
now yours’ tenderly holding onto mine
touching my fevered face and brow
distance becoming a grain of sand
the night your warm embrace

During the many weeks of being ill and feeling as though I were alone I believed that my mother was there with me. Odd though it may seem death is not really a separation from those we love.

  1. Renee, a lovely poem.. and I agree death is not the end. or are we separate .. We are always joined by that cord of love… And all be it we are within different frequencies and dimensions that cord and our connections are never broken..

    I am certain your Mom was with you and is around you when you feel her presence.. xxx Hugs Sue
