Analysis of WALKING ALONE
Walking Alone
Walking down the familiar path
I heard your voice...
Turning to see your face
only the warmth of the wind.
Closing my eyes
I felt you touch my cheek.
the way you always did.
Falling rain
speaks in your voice...
Silently watching the raindrops fall
waiting for you to come to me...
I held you close in my heart today
it made me feel complete.
You may have died...
but you are not gone
you will always be a part of me.
As long as the wind blows ...
the rain falls...
You will live on inside of me forever
for that is all my heart knows
Athena Circe Beauchamp
I miss you Mom...
