Joanne,
This is a really sweet poem and a very special idea to offer your friends and family for when the time comes - as it always must. Please print this out and make sure your loved ones know where it is - and it can be read as part of your eulogy! It would have everyone bawling! In a good way, of course.
Notes:
1.) Don't cry for me I(')m in the dewdrops that come with the morning light.
2.) Don't cry for me I'm (I)n the warmth of the summer breeze that softly caresses your skin.
3.) Don't cry for me I've just stepped away for a little while.
--> my FAVORITE line!!!
4.) there is soooo much extra space at the bottom. I think it might help the presentation if you deleted some?
Thanks so much! I enjoyed!

Go back in to edit and go to the bottom of your post - the last word and just click 'delete', 'delete', 'delete', until the cursor scoots up close to the words. You don't want it RIGHT NEXT to them but maybe a space or two below. See if that works?

Thank you 🙂

Joanne,
This is a very touching poem and entry for the Rhyming Poetry contest.
I like how you have included the seasons and symbolism of nature to
remind you of your lost loved ones.
Your short introduction poem is lovely as is your presentation.
The following line stood out to me:
"Don't cry for me I'm in the crashing waves that hug the distant shore."
I'll remember that when I walk on the beach. That thought has come to
me on previous walks.
Nice rhymes and beautiful entry,
Anna

This is a very well made poem. It is deeply emotional and hold a lot truth. The ones we love never leaves us and is all around us. Everything is connected after all. Good entry.

This is a beautiful poem that reminds us that our loved ones live on in spirit. They are still part of Gods creation and part of the universe. They come to us in dreams, in memory, in feelings, and in the beautiful elements of nature...birds, butterflies, flowers, waves, etc. Your artwork and pink background are matched perfectly, but the pink lettering of your poem make it difficult to read. Green might work. Best wishes and stay safe.

I like your poem, especially that closing line: "God was ready to call me home. It's the way the universe unfolds." I believe our time is in God's hands and we just trust Him with the loved ones that are gone from us. they will always be a part of our lives, and so many things remind us of the memories we cherish.

The sentiment in this poem is heartfelt. When someone passes there will always be traces that are the essence of them in everything and everywhere we travel.
You'll find me in the summer flowers that bloom and bloom again.
Don't cry for me I've just stepped away for a little while.
So good to remember.
