I saw

I saw... joy, I saw pride in your heart and soul, when we were so very small. Our little feet running through the hall, You stood so grand, so tall. I saw ...the love you had for your family It was perfect, not an anomaly. I saw... the rain, when you felt pain. I saw... fatigue in your face. Every line, every trace. I saw... inspiration I saw... dedication I saw ...the light in your eyes, so clear, so blue. Similar to the burning sun, My childhood was full of laughter, plenty of fun You thought me how to skate and run. My kites I did fly, up high where there lied the deep blue sky, Many say that the eyes are the window to the soul, there were obstacles we were unable to foresee. My love for you will forever be. The essence of time has passed me by, I never forget, no matter how I try. You guide me through my day. A positive thought, a smile, an image often comes my way. Your memory, your voice, your stories, I carry with me today.
