Thank you for the joy
Thank you for the tears
Thank you for the laughter
Thank you for the years
 ˜
The time seemed so short
But memories echo forever on
The sound of my heart beating
In only a moment all is gone
 ˜
Left with nothing to hold
No keepsake on a string
Alone with only me
Death does have a sting
 ˜
Mists of uncertainty surround you
The darkness hounds you
When madness confounds you
Just BELIEVE, it is all you can do!

“Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” ~Mark 9:24
I think we all have that one special item we cherish. Something gifted to us by someone we love, someone who has passed, someone we want to remember. A locket from a friend, a ring from your grandmother, a watch from your father…or maybe it is simply a memory, a moment in time that we will never forget. Write about your special keepsake…

I agree with you. We have to believe and as long as we do, then we will be okay. There is nothing wrong with a little faith and believing in something good. ♥
Thank you Kellie! Never let go of faith and belief, sometimes it is all we have when there are no answers to the questions that heckle our minds.
Mark … this so touched my heart this morning … thanks for sharing you wonderful poem.
Thank you Annie! Seems the best writing always springs from real life and this one definitely did. But I cling to believing.
You are so amazing Mark, and every time I read your words I am fully reminded of that again!
Who’s the man! 🙂 Thanks Paco!
To loose faith, to not believe, is to be truly alone.
I so agree Heidi! Must hold onto that, thanks for stopping by!
Awesome poem, Mark! I agree 100%!

Thanks Charles! Appreciate you stopping by!
very touching, beautiful poem
Thank you Doris, I believe to loose faith and a belief is to truly lose all. Even if there are no answers to the questions.
Belief and prayer is so important!!
