A lovely poem with some beautiful heart touching examples. It is very nice to read and feel.
you are eternal in the history of poemhunter for me Val, you write perfect poems. :)
Love this beautiful poem, as with all your poems you are unique and will live forever.
So beautifully written with such a deep passion for life in every line, you see the beauty of nature unfolding like an orchestra in perfect harmony!
Oh Val, this is so very beautiful and oh so sad for me.....I have lost so many loved ones and family, and friends as well, and still can not accept the thought of them as gone forever....I only pray that there is a heaven, or afterlife, where we all might meet again....and I do not want to think of you gone, my dear friend....please stay! {{{hugs}}} for you!
Incredibly beautiful. I guess we all want to be remembered and well.
Beautiful. the sweetest memories are rarely crashing storms...they are the wispy cool morning fog. I love it!
you aint going anywhere untill you complete 1000 poems, , , : p a sweet write, , , full of emotions....
When you are gone, you will not be forgotten. Let's hope at that distant time many years from now that we may all be considered on a gentle breeze especially on a warm afternoon.

I ask only a moment’s thought, to think of me, then smile – not this for long drawn hours or days but just a little while. good one. come and read my poems
Who knows who will go first and there is no doubt you will kick your bucket only after quarter of a century from now.... I mean to say it Valerie. Many of us will remember you as a talented and appealing poet and a lovable human being... HAPPY EASTER, Valerie.
When you are gone You will never be gone Ever dwelling in our thoughts As one who sang of emotions humane Of love, of pain And of nature sublime.... Simply a delightful write., Val.
Remember me But merely as a passing cloud, A poem which is simply beautiful. Thank you.
This is so very sweet Val.... You have no major demands... but just a fleeting kind thought that shall bring a smile upon the face.....! A beautifully crafted poem, engrossing and delightful! A sure 10
Death is inevitable.Everyone must face it, but a few are remembered.Magic is on Val, the magic of your diction.
Like a gift from heaven, as I sit writing tonight, on my departed mother's birthday, I find this blessing of a poem. You have touched my heart and put a smile on my face....I'd like to think my mom lead me to it....Such comfort and calm, I now can sleep sweetly. Thank you for sharing it....saved as a personal favorite. PEACE
