Julius

Dear Julius, Years add on
Without you by my side
But your memories live on
With us, side by side

Times we tread together
And the days that went by
Were different all together
Will they return, how do I try

Memories of your love
Memories of your care
All in my treasure cove
My this lifetime's fare

We miss you every minute
And wish we meet again
Though wait seems infinite
Certain hope seems to gain

Your erstwhile smile assures us
So does your persona calm
His Will will also rejoin us
We pray with folded palms

Remembering my friend Julius once again, years after his departure, while talking to his wife Joslyn ,.....

This ode written from Joslyn's viewpoint brings out her grief and hope yearning for Julius
