I am finding it difficult to see what I am typing. My dear friend Dennis McHale posted this beautiful poem as ‘n tribute to Vic. I am touched that this talented man would take the time to do this. Dennis has been such a great friend. http://dlmchale.com/2013/05/02/in-memory-of-vicky/
Today has been such a mixed day. I have been filled with the deepest sadness and sorrow and yet I have felt at peace that Vic’s suffering is over. I miss her terribly.
I am feeling flu-ish and fell asleep on the sofa. Jon-Daniel covered me with a blanket, and I woke when he gently kissed me on the forehead. The way his mommy used too…
I want my child back! It is too hard trying to live without her.
Dennis thank-you for your beautiful words. Thank you for your love and support over the past year. I am too teary to write so I shall post this beautiful poem for the world to read and enjoy.
I love you my Angel Child. You have touched people all over the world.
In Memory of Vickyby dmchale |
This poem is dedicated to my dear friend “tersiaburger”
In memory of her beloved daughter, Vicky.
——————————————————————-
You and I
are touched by one star.
Wherever you are
we stand together in one light
which no depth or height or distance
can ever dim.
Wherever you are
your light shines;
past time and space
past flesh to thought,
I feel your power.
Wherever you go
the day will dawn
and the star will appear;
for you are a child of this light
and it fosters your heavenly dreams.
In this light, I have found ways
to heal, to bind up,
to tear down the feeble structures
of fear of your absence has
carelessly constructed within me.
You and I
are touched by one star.
In its glowing embrace
we find our true selves;
we find our peace.
Today I may stand alone,
missing you with all my heart
be I stand strong.
Through the corridors of our courage
you have helped me to
discover those eternal lines
of love within myself;
my birthright discovered because
Vicky and I are
touched by one star.
