Remembering A Soul

Postby encybearis » Mon Oct 31, 2016 9:19 pm

This time of the year, comes All Souls Day
I remember my brother who passed away
I was only last year, I can tell
Still with sadness from the heart I feel

I had resentment to God, that time
During our family darkness was in prime
I asked God, why he took our brother so early
And I did not heard God's answer immediately

But when I was at calm moment
I heard God's voice from a distant
Thru gentle wind blowing the candle light
With an explanation at that night

He said; Son, it hurts I know
I felt that like sharp blade too
When my son was nailed in a cross that time
And who dare not be sad during that time

As I listen, I just put what God said to my heart
As I understand, though a dagger in my heart'
And I will just honor my brother, and all souls anyway
During the time of All Souls Day

It is lovely to find a poem from you on Stella's site Ency. I am so sorry you lost your brother but appreciate the tenderness of the 3rd stanza and the resolution you obtain with the stanzas that follow. May he rest in peace and always be remembered by those who love him dearly Ency.

i too am so sorry that you lost your brother Ency, grief affects us in many different ways but has to resolve itself in order that we might move on , and many things seemingly happen for no good reason.This is a beautiful tribute poem and a good time to share it with your friends.

Welcome to our site and we are very happy to see you here :)

Sorry Ency to lose someone so close amkes us question over and over WHY! This was a wonderful tirbute and could not have been chosen on a better say - souls live on and there may be times when you can feel him close by coming to give you comfort. I do believe the spirit lives on - thank you for sharing your loss with us.
