For my babies.

For just a moment
I’m sure I saw a flicker of light ahead.
Perhaps it was your smile.
Though past now,
remembered,
in my heart
like the small sound
of a butterfly passing by.
No night is so dark
that can not be brightened
with memories of you.
Raindrops carry along
your blessings from heaven
to wash away my tears
and bring me hope anew.

Rarely do I write. Usually it is great upheaval that causes the words to flow. These came out last night. I miss Ella and Cody so much. They are the first things I think about when I wake up and the last thing I see before I drift off at night. Lately they have even been in my dreams. Maybe these are the words I've been searching for and now I can have some peace.
