‘Seasons of Life’
‘As I sit here in our favorite place,
It suddenly hits me, change is in the air.
Mother Nature the first to alert me.
The gentle breeze blew like a whispering from you,
a new season is emerging.
As the leaves fell so did my tears,
as I realised another year without you here.
A new year is upon us and as I count my blessings,
I also cry silent tears that you won’t be here
to make new memories.
That dull ache of heart break still lingers.
I hear you say I am always just a thought away.
I know this is true but I still miss you..

In loving memory of my father Brendan and for those who are missing their loved ones.
