You Will Remain (Poem For Debra)

You will remain.

When I walk the streets in the rain,

Your silver hair tresses the trees,

And I remember the kindness in your eyes.

When I walk the trail in the sunlight,

Your bright laughter glints from the rocks,

And I remember the joy in your voice.

Always you move in grace wherever you walk,

And the peace that your very presence bestows

Is the gift that you give to us all.

You will remain.
