Sitting quietly in my room
Reflecting on winters cold arms
Engulfing me. Sensing only doom.
Yet I feel no sense of alarm.
Those wintry days became friends
Together, winter and I did blend
Grief and sorow were companions there.
A deep darkness descending everywhere.
Yet light seeps through unseen lines
Unbidden it enters leaving it's signs
Storms raging without and within
Spring announces it's presence on the wind.
My heart melts, slowly but surely
Leaving winter behind as a memory.
Step by step I rediscover how to live
Freeing my spirit, allowing me to forgive.
Forgiving the tomorrows we never had
Forgiving and trying to learn to be glad
Day by day I find it's OK to simply be
Facing life is slowly setting me free.
Free to enjoy life, free to laugh and to play.
Free to live each and every single day.
Keeping your spirit alive is still a priority
But now I understand what you tried to tell me.
Life is too short to live only in Winter
Let Spring take hold and be my mentor
You said to honor you I must be true to me.
And to realize your death finally set you free.
You are missed each and every day.
Your love, however is here to stay.
For all my tomorrows I will celebrate you.
But spending time celebrating me, too.
Rest well my love, let your soul be at peace.
For in your passing I know you found release.
While you are walking in your heavenly home.
Guide me along my ways, wherever I roam.
Keep winters chill from engulfing me.
Let the seasons of my soul roam free.
So that I may enjoy the days I am here.
Til' once more our paths draw near.
