How?...(Acceptance)

HOW? (ACCEPTANCE)…(©Peter Sprenkeler)

How can I tell you in this testing time?
How can I show you - perhaps in rhyme?
How can I portray this love so sublime?
How can I send it - this love of mine?

My tears are a sign as I feel this pain,
I cling to memories rich and try to restrain.
These confusing emotions arise again and again,
My heart is lamenting I must refrain.

Please consider and realize I love you so,
My emotions are pleading “I don’t want you to go”
I have to say goodbye but you have to know,
I’ll carry your love forever … wherever I go.

It is a treasure I’ll cling to until the end of time,
You may be gone but your love will be mine.
And my love is yours I’ll leave my tears as a sign,
We’ll be together again in spirit somewhere in time.

So goodbye sweet mother I’ll miss you forever,
I wish so strongly that we could always be together.
But this can’t be so - but love will be our tether,
Our love will never end … never oh never.

“Written for Lynn (my partner’s sister-in-law) at the time of the impending death of her mother through illness.
At this time she found it extremely difficult to cope with the imminent loss of
Someone she cared a great deal for … I trust that these words helped.

Peter Sprenkeler.

A wonderful write indeed, I am sure this poem gave her great comfort.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
