Analysis of Veronica Visits



I know you're still around.
We all feel you.
You're watching,still protecting,
are'nt you?
I can almost smell,
your baking bread.
Still feel your hands,
as they softly stroke my head.
I can hear you talking.
You're still teaching,
right from wrong.
Amazing,how your lessons
keep you here with me.
In my heart where you
belong.
