A Remembrance for All Seasons


Another page for my mom's memorial album. Poem of my own inspiration.

I will remember you...When the robins arrive announcing Spring's arrival.Surely the flowers you so loved will be blooming soon.

I will remember you...When the leaves change their colors and the dusky sky is on fire,
For Autumn was your favorite season.

I will remember you...When Winter brings our first snowfallAnd we our celebrating a white Christmas.

I will remember you...When we gather with family and friends each SummerFor picnics and merriment in the great outdoors.

Just like you, I will be the one taking the photos, hoping to capture fleeting moments for posterity.

In every moment, I will remember you.

Impressions of Healing and Calm

http://www.scrapbookgraphics.com/xcart/product.php?productid=20692&cat=0&page=1

The storm clouds gather in a heavy dark oppression, glowering down, inescapable. The dry, dusty corn stalks are shaken, tossed, and waving wildly to escape. The dust billows in wandering columns across the yard, searching for more to consume. The clouds burst and the rain begins – hard, driving, and relentless. It tears dead leaves from the trees. It whips everything unstable and lacking roots, carrying it off to the center of the storm. It tears at the wildflowers with greedy fingers, yet they fight back, resilient and determined to survive in their supple state. The dry ground soaks up the wetness, hiding the dust with deep eager gulps. The rain softens, falling steadily to feed what is left of the fury, gently encouraging and motivating growth. The sun emerges from behind the glowering clouds, chasing the wind away and causing the wetness to shimmer like jewels on the refreshed greenery. The deadness has been washed away, the streams of water cascading down and filling the earth with promises of deeper roots and further growth. Healing has begun.
