My River To Eternity.

Goldfinch60



I walk by My River

Its clear green mirror

Hidden as the brown water

Rained from the hills

Causes it to rush past Me

In a torrent of sorrow.

I look up and the grey clouds

Cover the bright blue above.

I am surrounded by bare trees

Their brown and black leaves

Covering the green swards

Of the beautiful meadows

That were once there.

I walk on in sadness

But then it happens

A hole appears in the clouds

And the bright blue is there,

It expands and the Bright Sun

Shines down upon Me

As I walk the path of wonder

Realising that She is now with Me

As I walk this glorious path

With the Love of my Life

Who I will be with one day

And Our Spirits will join as one

Walking Our River for Eternity.

    It's a painful anniversary for you.
    There's the River of Life in Eternity, to walk besides together, for ever! 🙂
    There's them trees there too, for the 'healing of the nations'. Not to spark off another debate, about herbalist healing, as previously though!

      Thanks Orchi, only eight more days until the first anniversary of her passing.
      Yes that River of Life is waiting for us.

      She is always with you. Beautifully expressed poem here.

      • Goldfinch60

        All the time Clara she is with me, in eight days it will be the first Anniversary of her passing.

          Oh, my thoughts are with you Andy. Take care of yourself.

          that self-mined strength and resolve emanating from such write's of reflection will hopefully instil in-other's, hope: that they too can find what solace can be excavated from the ashes of crusted tears upon aching fingertips and hearts,
          'she' must be so proud Andy

          • Goldfinch60

            Thank you for your words Mek, much appreciated.

            And you know that in a tomorrow not so far away you will see springtime around you and the wildlife afire with energy.... your energy for life...

            Now we are in winter and should live as in winter.... the natural world lies quiescent, wisely waiting. Relaxed, we are attuned to the seasons.

            • Goldfinch60

              We surely are attuned to the seasons d a and may that always be so.

              A potent sense you've penned here Andy, with strength and tenderness, absence and presence fondly remembered and honoured. My sentiments can say little about this time for you but my respects for your anniversary.

                Thank you RDS for your very kind words.
