Written about someone special, who is just a picture hanging on my wall please r/r/r |
A Picture On The wall There you hang a picture on our wall A handsome man, strapping, strong and tall It's been a long time since you went away We think of you night and day We can't believe when you walked out the door That we wouldn't see you any more We never had a fight, no bad words were said You just said that you were going out before bed All sort of things run through our head Are you alive, or are you laying somewhere dead We will always love you with all our hearts But the day you left our world fell apart Now every day we say a prayer Putting you in God Almighty's care And we wonder if you ever think of home Of your Mom and Dad here alone We would love to see you one more time Or just to have you drop us a line But we're very happy for the picture on the wall As a picture is better than nothing at all. Thank you Autumnterm for the awardicom on this poem that is so dear to me. UPDATE
UPDATE ON UPDATE! To many years have gone by, and he's off now doing his thing, no one in our family has contact nor knows where he is, but as we say he is a grown man, our missing son, that lives within our hearts and his picture will always hangs on our living room wall. |
