I held you
tightly
like a cluster
of memories
then
I let you go
and the wind
carried you
away from me
but the memories
fell back
into my heart
and then,
that voice in the wind:
“Here is the love
from which I will return.”

Come and read this beautiful poem “Letting Go”!! See if you have had any memories fall back into your heart!
Your words are heaven, Trini. Always so loving, that when I got a new award that highlights love and compassion, I thought of you. I see the ping from my award posting, so perhaps you’ve already seen it. In case you haven’t, I’m here to let you know I shared some love for you and your blog at http://friendlyfairytales.com/2015/02/01/snowfall-of-awards/ No pressure. I know how much time they take. ((hugs)) Hope you are held in love today, my friend.
Thank you so so much!! 🙂 Yes, I saw it! 🙂 And I appreciate it so much, that you thought of me for such an award, that is very touching 🙂 ❤ I have been with my inner child today, she needed some care, so I let her watch Winnie the Pooh on youtube and drink lots of hot chocolate 🙂 🙂 ❤ now there is a beautifu silvery moon outside! That makes me feel loved ❤
Winnie the Pooh is very healing, and hot chocolate never fails to lift my spirits. You are loved by me and your other commenters, whose love is there to see. 🙂 Huge hugs, Brenda
I love that!! 🙂 You make me feel loved, you all do! 🙂 🙂 I loved this from Winnie the Pooh:
Tigger: What’s up Pooh?
Pooh: Up!
Piglet: But isn’t that closer to the thunder!?
Hihihihihihi 😀
Big hugs to you too!! 🙂 ❤
That is so Pooh! Piglet is one of my favorite characters. LOL
🙂 I think I liked the baby kangeroo the best, I dont remember what it is called in English 🙂 But they are all adorable! 🙂
Kanga and Roo. 🙂 They have joyful spirits.
Oh, yes 🙂 I love Roo!! 🙂
Yes, Roo is so peaceful and fun. 🙂 I love when he bounces up the tree and bounces down. No fear at all. I wish I could be a fearless.
Yes 🙂 I wish that too 🙂 I think I liked him the best cause all the others have a touch of melancholy, but Roo is just joyful and happy 🙂
Yes, he’s the only true child among them. The others could be adults.
yes, that is exactly what I felt 🙂
😀
🙂 🙂 🙂

A bit sad, but the love endures.
Yes it does ❤
You show us again and again what it is to live in Love.
❤ ❤ ❤ You make my heart smile.
Thank you for posting this lovely poem. Tomorrow is my middle son’s birthday. He would have been 37. Your words will help carry me through tomorrow.
My heart is touched that this poem could become little bit yours and your son’s. I will send you loving healing thoughts and pray that your longing for him will transform into memories of his love. ❤ ❤
Thank you. You made me smile.
❤ 🙂 ❤
I have really missed one of my very best friends, Matt, lately. This happened to me a couple of nights ago. He just settled on me and I said something he used to always say. I started crying and then me and Jonathan just laughed and laughed through the tears. Thank you for being you, Trini. ❤
Oh, I love that Lisa 🙂 I love that the memory of him made you and Jonathan laugh 🙂 I think he must have been laughing with you, so happy to know that the memory of his life on earth could bring so much happiness and joy to someone 🙂 ❤ ❤
This is lovely.
Thank you, that makes me so happy to hear 🙂 ❤
Love this one, Trini! I love the image, too! I am obsessed with hot air balloons. Would love to ride on one, but there was a horrific accident on one near me so now I am fearful.Too much to live for! They launch often in my area and though I won’t get on one — I really enjoy watching them.
I love that photo too! 🙂 ❤ It is magical! I also love hot air balloons, any balloon really 🙂 I also love the small colorful ones that kids carry with them on a string 🙂 ❤
Simple and touching ❤
🙂 ❤ Thank you! ❤
❤ You find the most magical photos and words. ❤
🙂 🙂 I love that photo too! 🙂 I was picturing my grandmother, who is in heaven now, leaving earth in one of these air balloons, it made me smile 🙂
Yes, I felt that smile ❤
🙂
Beautiful!
Thank you so much! 🙂 ❤
Very beautiful, and comforting. Thank you.
🙂 ❤
Perhaps the most beautiful thing I’ve EVER read!
Ooooooh….! Thank you so very much! ❤ Now you have touched my heart and made me feel so special! 🙂 Thank you ❤ ❤
Such a beautiful poem , bless you and your lovely words. Kathy
