In Memory Poem by George Bernard Hough

In Memory

Rating: 4.9


We knew the time would have to come

when our loving pair, with god`s will done,

would suddenly change and then become

a silent world of only one.

it happened just some weeks ago

you left me, lonely, and alone.

in winters cold and swirling snow

to face the future on my own.

Though friends and family rally round

to show their love in word and deed.

The emptiness that i have found

cannot be filled by others creed.

No words can tell how much I miss

Your` presence in my daily life

A touch of hands a loving kiss

That meant so much from you my wife.
