Colin Ian Jeffery Poems

She is harmony, joy and soulmate
Radiant flower that never fades
Beauty enthralling desire.

(‘Gab, ' died of cancer, May 10th 1978)

Died long ago
Still freshly missed
...

Thinking of you
Makes time stand still
With love overwhelming
I see your face
...

Time long ago
All seemed magical and pure
Joyful and abundant
Days of fun and laughter
...

Some pilgrims take the high road
Walking sunlit butterfly pastures
Treading sweet grass meadows
Never doubting, resolute in faith
...

Happiness is fleeting
Gone before we realize
Gentle wind blowing free
Never held, lost and swept away.
...

Let God be in my thinking
Navigating the way
Light within engulfing darkness
Truth of my salvation.
...

We all must die
Nothing lasts forever
All falls in the end.
...

I have loved you for many years
And should you die before me
There would such grief I could not bear
Because after you entered my life
...

Cruel ghosts from my past haunt the hours
Shaming heart, torturing the soul
Memories of love and bad decisions
Crushing spirit into despair.
...
