I still count the days,
since you’ve been gone
to fading memories
I am still clinging on.
They are all it seems,
I have left of you . .
as old photo albums
I cry my way through.
I still hear your laughter,
see those smiling eyes
I still can remember
our last, final goodbye’s.
There isn’t a moment,
that you, I don’t miss
nor is there a second
I don’t feel the abyss.
I still count the days,
since you’ve been gone
and its only by God’s grace
I am able to move on!
~~~~~~~
“The Lord is nigh
unto them that are
of a broken heart;”
In memory
of my son Glenn’s birthday

Thank you Vincent. This has been a deep valley but God is faithful and it is by His grace and through His strength that I am getting through it. I am so grateful for the compassion and peace He has given me. Losing a child is a valley no one should go through without a Shepherd leading them out of it! It has made my faith stronger and has been a witness to members of my family who are not Christians. I truly believe “all things work together for good” and see how in my son’s death other may be saved ~ Blessings to you and yours ~
