A Poem from the The Poet and His Thoughts Collection
An Ode To Emma - Viewed 469 Times

January 11, 2009
The echo that you seem to hear
Is courage I am sure
As you so often recognize
These things now most obscure
The darkened tunnel and the road
That bring reality
The challenge too of living strong
When there’s no light to see
The willingness to fight today
Tomorrow’s yet unknown
The energy to steel yourself
When now you are alone
The noisy echo and the sound
Of every day you live
The courage and the fortitude
To all these things forgive
And most importantly of all
The knowledge you possess
To live and love and laugh again
As you each day caress
