A chapter in the book Christine's Poems

The Sands of Time

by Chrissy710

The Sands of Time

Five years have passed, so quickly gone
Now from our lives, but with each night
We see the Eastern star so bright;
And know each one you look upon.
Protector of our earthly shell
You keep us safe and free from harm
Your spirit's strong we feel you Barn
And in our hearts you'll always dwell.
We think of you with fond recall
Of times we spent when you were here,
These cherished memories held dear
Before that day you heard the call.
And so today we will unite
And think of you and your big smile,
Remember you and for a while
Feel you so close and hold you tight.

It is the14th April today in Australia and it is this day 5 years ago that my Dad , Barney suddenly passed away. So every year I put a memorium piece in our local paper to remember him. and this is the one I wrote for this year.

Usually I put one of Dads poem in the paper as he was a beautiful poet and wrote some stunning pieces, of which I have them all typed up and in a book.

But this year I thought I would write one for him so Thanks for reading and thank you to click3333 for the image 'Rock of Ages 'as Dad was my rock
