traci

the snow was gently falling
as on bended knee he cried
his soul and skin had ached for her
since that bitter night she died

the Father watched from heaven
as the young man fell apart
He called His newest angel forth
and said, "child, touch his heart."

the boy traced the letters
of the name he loved to speak
when he heard a voice whisper sweetly
"my darling please don't weep."

a hand laid on his shoulder
he recognized the touch
a rush of warmth ran through his soul
he'd missed so very much

she said, "i'll always love you
i've watched you since that day
forever i'll be in your heart
now wipe your tears away."

she gently kissed his trembling lips
in a moment she was gone
he turned his face up towards the sky
and knew she'd found her home.
