  • My Guiding Light

    The anticipation of a conversation
    a moment’s pause, a heart’s sensation
    An expectation of words unsaid
    A binding connection, a delicate thread

    The fabric was woven, the story was told
    a legacy kept, forever to hold
    A journey of words, a longing to know became a tapestry rich, a narrative to grow

    The art of conversation, a gentle guide
    leading me through the labyrinth of time
    To listen to memories, a heart’s treasure a mind’s archive, a soul’s measure

    All that you were and the joy you spread became part of me, of who I am
    Reflections of my younger days your voice, your presence, your beautiful face

    Our memories, an album of distant times
    keeps the joy of better days alive
    Reluctant to embark on unknown paths
    comfort comes from waves of our past

    Your existence upon which I became
    was a guide, a light, so much more than name
    The courage you showed throughout your life
    echoes deep within the depths of my mind

    In that stillness, I found my voice
    A sense of clarity, a heartfelt choice
    The silence beckoned, I found my way
    to a place of peace, where love will stay

    • Jody, I am so sorry for your loss. Your poem is truly inspiring and I enjoyed it. My favorite part of this would have to be when you said “Your existence upon which I became was a guide, a light, so much more than name.” A person can truly guide us in many different life directions, so we must surround ourselves with people who inspire us to be better! Amazing work.
