My Loved Ones
My Loved Ones
Ilya Prints
Sometimes I close my eyes
and see my father’s slight smile,
and hear his muffled voice,
or feel the concerned mother’s glance,
inquiring if I’m fine.
I’d like to approach them,
to hug, to comfort, …but
it’s impossible now, alas.
Two steps - it was so easy,
so little they needed in all,
but it meant so much for the old -
a smile, an embrace, or a call.
In the swift stream of my life
the years invisibly fly…
I pray, grant me more time
to tell of my love,
My Loved Ones…
