Love and hope - dedicated to Jeremy, with much love, always....

shimmering light in the distance, you are standing there
eyes sparkling like emerald fire, your voice echoes in the air
does my mind deceive me, from afar I hear you say
I am with you always, but you know that anyway

in the night as I lie crying, your hand reaches out to me
it is comfort that you bring, understanding what you see
does my mind deceive

*sniff* Your poem and that picture fill me with a combination of happy and sad. I can't explain it., but I think you understand. Thank you for sharing.

[rjdoll2]

Yes, I do understand, my dear happy lizard.
I'm glad you enjoyed them though, thank you. :)
Love is an undying and beautiful thing..he is always with us. ^_^
Talk with you later...

"I am with you always, but you know that anyway."

Oh, this is such a beautiful line - one of many in a beautiful poem, to be exact. You manage to convey so many emotions, trust, love, hope... You manage to convey that - though he had to go - he did not wholly LEAVE. Thank you so much for sharing that with us, my friend.

I am with you always, but you know that anyway.

[rjdoll2]

Thank you for the beautiful comment, my friend. :)
I believe what I state in the poem, so I'm very happy that it conveys what I feel, and hopefully more importantly than that, what we all feel about our dear Jeremy.
Also, thank you for your technical help on this, I appreciate it very much indeed.

Yes, I am with you always, but you know that anyway. ^_^

...and there is something very special about that photo as well - apart from what you are relating of his nature. He looks so very gentle on it, and though he had to go through so much suffering... at that point he seems to have regained some peace. To know that is a great comfort. Thanks again for sharing that, and many thanks to Linda as well.

I agree the gentleness which seems to dance within his eyes makes this picture very special.

[rjdoll2]

Oh, I know what you mean.
For me, Jeremy is glowing, beaming, emanating such light and life in this picture...
Heavenly Jeremy, that is how I see it. Peaceful, knowing....
Thank you again. I'm sure that Linda will be happy that the picture brings us such joy and comfort.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my what a beautiful picture! He looks so warm and still I see the boy within him. He doesn't look like a man who has faced so much and faces even more. The only telling signs are of the greater understanding for others which shows in his eyes. Many thanks to you and your dear friend for sharing. This picture means a great deal to me.

Oh and I love the poem!!! Indeed you speak many a true word!

Oh this is so wonderful. Loved your poem. I think that speaks for all of us who have simmilar experiences! And Jeremy's photo is simply stunning. he looks very much at peace with himself, you can see it in his eyes. So very soulful and although his body was failing him, you can still see the great spirit within him. Very moving indeed and thank you so much for sharing it !!

I thought we would understand each other very well with this post, and we do.
I'm so happy that you love the picture so much as well. You are welcome, and I will certainly thank Linda. It really is a most treasured picture of Jeremy...it speaks to me, you know?! ^_^

It's always a pleasure to see a new poem from you, and they keep on getting better and better. This one is truly very touching and poignant, and I love the beautiful imagery.

Lovely photo of him, indeed!
