There is a Gift

There is a Gift

In the scrapbooks and memory pages of the mind
Thoughts of you have formed a cherished and unforgettable image.
In remembering you, there is a gift.
The tears fall at times we least expect
No amount of time, space or new experience will ever replace you.
In shedding tears, there is a gift.
Glimpses of you are caught
In waking mind, moments before dreams melt into daily reality.
In cherished connection, there is a gift.
The deepest longings of the heart
Escape into the night air, acknowledged by a gleaming star.
In quiet reflection, there is a gift.
Other eyes are moist with tears,
Other arms reach out to help and other voices encourage us.
In sharing grief, there is a gift.
Life has challenging lessons,
Love is stronger than anything; love is stronger than death.
In learning this, there is a gift.
In your life, in your own living, there is a gift.
