"THE EMPTY NEST." (POEM)
Dear Readers, I have received a very encouraging message from one of my first followers. Her name is Sarah. She is a sweet dear friend, and I would like to please her with her personal request. Sweet Sarah has asked me to post something in my galaxy blog. I only post when I get a sparkle of inspiration in My Monthly Newsletters. Anyway, I'll do it for you this time. So, here it goes for you, sweet Sarah. I wrote a poem in the beginning of this year, 2011, and I'll share it for you. It talks about the feeling of an empty nest, an empty home, a place where it used to be filled with loved ones, dear animals, and dear folks. But now, they are all gone. Plus, I used to have my dear family with me. However, for one reason or another, they parted. Most of them are in Heaven, others live in New York. My broken heart is still bleeding for them. The wound won't ever heal. I miss them a great deal!!
"The empty nest." (Poem)
If I weep in the darkest night,
Would you wipe my tears away?
If I laugh in a broad day light,
Would you laugh with me in the same way?
If I blend my soul under the rain,
Would you soak yours to embrace my heart?
If my eyes smile like an open rose,
Would you smile back, stay and never part?
If I put music into this song,
Would you listen to my lyrical seduction?
If I blend my words to make them rhyme,
Would you take the time to listen with satisfaction?
The loved ones only drifted away...
One took time to show a loving care.
What else could one say?
The love inside like a petal only drifted away,
Parted on separate ways,
And only emptiness was replaced in there.
I suffer the syndrome of the empty nest.
Would you pause for a while,
And answer my prayer request?
I'll talk to mountains, birds or the moon.
I'll still gather flowers that in your heart may bloom.

A lovely poem dear Starry. I am finally home from hospital, and will take it slowly. There is a lot of pain and I don't feel up to doing a lot.
Much love Crystal xxxx

Just found your site while looking for an old poem with the words 'the toy box is gone now'.
I love your poem. Lovely!
How sad that some parents cannot wait until they leave the nest unlike us who feel that 'emptiness' when they leave ~ God bless you!
