In Memory of my Parents!
Juanita L.and Arthur C. Walters
I AM NOT THERE
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
Of quiet birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.

A son's lament
It was a dark and dreary nite March 4,2002
Little was I to know it would something I did not want to do
For on that nite 6 years ago
I held my mothers hand as she let go
The gurgle of death rumbled through my ears
I tried to say she is still here
The pulse I felt was mine alone
Believing she was still here and not gone
I was shocked and spread the news
My mom was gone and what did I lose
I lost a person that brought me life
Taught me all the wrongs from the right
But never have I written a poem for my mother
They were always for Robbie or some significanrt other
Today I say forgive me mom for not remembering you
When I lost Robbie there was no grief left for you
Today I just wanted to say to you
A son's love for his mom is always true
Wherever you are I have many regrets
But my love for you I can never forget
6 years later to the day
Mom forgive me is all I can say

For Dad
It has taken me 62 years for me to learn
Of the love for my Father whom I now yearn
I lost my mother and then my son
I asked God above why?What have I done
Now the day are winding down time is precious there is no doubt
To let you know through all these years I have lived without
The love of my father whom I cannot every repay
to show him my love as he slowly passes away
One day soon you will be free with Mom and my son Robbie
Even now as my heart breaks
my undying love for you there is no mistake
To you my special friend whom I have grown to Love
Will be there for him when God calls dad home
Then you will be free and never alone
My grief I will bear and tears I will Cry
For the love of my Father I cannot lie
So dad as I write these last words
My Love for you Is meant to be heard
Good bye for now as I speak today
For sometime soon I will come your way
Love you always

An End To An Era
There are many thoughts that run through my mind
For many losses have I suffered yet I try to unwind
We are but mortal and have but years to be alive
But life becomes harder as we are left to survive
I have lost my Mother,Father and my oldest Son
As much as I have lost it cannot be undone
In life I always took things for granted until this day
Now the ones I have lost there are no words I can say
No more phone calls to see how you are
No more House to visit you in my car
Life changes quickly like the wink of an eye
Yet these questions remain as we ask ourselves WHY
Our inner strength must come out of it's shell
To guide us and remind us that they are well
I held my Mom's hand as she passed away
I talked to my dad as he passed the same way
The tears are gone but one thing you cannot change
The love and memories of my Parents will always remain
My Mom,then my Son now my Father have become one
For they are with God the Father and ther Holy Son
Now I must survive and find my way
To wake up tomorrow and start a new day
