Remembrance
A
silent whisper of
"I
love you" revisited
my
mind this holiday
season,
just as it has
in
times past. Memories
filter
through the present
as
if they were here today,
occupying
a place in my heart
where
the little boy absolutely
adored
his dad, but times have
changed,
dad is now resting
with
the Heavenly Father,
and the
little boy is now a man,
yet
the heart stays the same,
connecting
with the mind to
keep
afresh what he meant
to
me, and to softly echo,
"I
love you and miss you."
