For Lori

When I feel alone
I look into the stars at night
and feel I am in the presence of those
I have loved and are not with us any more
When the breeze touches my face
I feel their wings fanning me with wisdom
and I take comfort in this awareness.
Have faith the one you love is
now on their own special journey
Take courage and strength
from those around you
And when times seem heard to bear
look into the stars at night
feel the gentle breeze and take
comfort that the one you love
is not only in your heart
and in your memories
but all around you
