Dave007 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Hey, I'm Still Here I was near you, by your bed last night; I came to have a peek. I could see that you were crying, you found it hard to sleep. I chattered to you softly as you brushed away a tear, "It's me, I haven't left you. I'm well. I'm fine. I'm here." I was close to you at breakfast. I watched you pour the tea. You were thinking of the many times your hands reached out to me. I was with you at my grave today. You tend it with such care. I want to reassure you, that I am not lying there. I flew with you back towards the house. As you fumbled for your key, I gently touched you with a feather, I smiled and said, "It's me." You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know that I was perching there. It's possible for me to be so near you everyday To say to you with certainty, "I never went away." You sat there very quietly, and then smiled. I think you knew In the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you. The day is over - I smile and watch you yawning And say, "Good night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning." And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide, I'll fly across to greet you and we'll enter side by side. I have many things to show you. There is so much for you to see. Be patient, live your journey out... then come home to be with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Dave, I don't know who the author is but that poem really touched me when I read it, the tears just flowed from my eyes and every single time I read it the reaction is the same. That is one of the most touching poems that I have ever read, thanks so much for sharing it with us, maybe one day I can read it without shedding a tear but I doubt it.

Joolesgreyuk Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 You know I read that poem thinking it was written for a lost child/spouse/parent, it is so touching it would be suitable for a lost person as well as a beloved pet. Thanks for sharing this Dave, a beautiful poem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
