A Memory of Yesterday


I remember ever so long ago,
Time can not rob my memories so,
For a short time you were there,
And vanished Oh! where.

You hardly gave me time,
To gather memorizes that were mine,
But here I am today,
With my memorizes not decay.

I wonder what it would have been,
If life had not changed from scene to scene,
But it is not for me to know,
As life is a confusing show.

You live on at vast,
A sweet memory of my past,
But life goes on I know,
So with it I will go.
                                                

I wrote this poem in loving memory of my mother who passed away many years ago. 

Have you been faced with the death of someone who was very dear to you?
Have you been able to cope with grief?
Have you been able to grieve without jeopardizing the rest of your life and the lives of your family members?

We never know when it will be the TIME to say GOODBYE to the people we love. We just have to live life in a manner that we do not have any regrets. Death is a sure thing for all of us. Therefore, do not let grief paralyze you. Even though it is hard, fight against sadness before it slips into depression. Make sure that children who have lost their parents know that they are loved, so that they can process grief in their own way. Get through life by living one day at a time.

Death can not separate you from our loved ones. Our loved ones will live on in our hearts forever. Time is a healer and before you know it, your pain will become a memory of yesterday.
