Love Poem: Echoes of the Past

Echoes of the Past

Tiny footsteps pattering, laughter adrifting
Little voices screaming in joyful playing
Their mother’s sweet voice softly whispering 
Affirming and professing her love that is undying

Two little boys glowing in loving affection
Showered with love and so much attention
Angels that were products of a blissful union
But they were taken away by death’s intrusion

And now as I sit here my thoughts adrifting
Echoes of the past my mind keeps remembering
I see our boys looking at us waving and smiling
Letting us know for the next life they are waiting

With the help of the echoes I now see a vision
It brings in me a sureness and solid conviction
To keep you happy is now my life’s mission
As I eagerly await our eternal family’s reunion
