Bob And Frazelle

In the vast expanse of time's embrace,
Where memories whisper, leaving their trace,
I traverse the echoes of days gone by,
Enveloped in my parents' love, Bob and Frazelle.
Like a gentle breeze that caresses the shore,
Their essence lingers, forevermore,
In the tender moments that fill my heart,
Their stories etched in every cherished part.
Through the prism of recollection's gaze,
I witness fragments, a nostalgic haze,
In the symphony composed of love's pure thread,
A narrative of lives that once were led.
In the golden glow of a summer's day,
Bob, a man with a spirit that found its way,
His hands, weathered from toiling long,
Yet his soul soared high, a resolute song.
He'd whistle a tune, a melody of grace,
A song of freedom, a smile on his face,
His laughter echoed through the open air,
A serenade of joy, beyond compare.
Frazelle, a woman with kindness ablaze,
A gentle soul, her wisdom a radiant maze,
Her eyes, sparkling with secrets untold,
A universe of love her heart did hold.
She'd hum a melody, soft and sweet,
A lullaby that made the world complete,
Her voice, a gentle whisper in the night,
Guiding us through life's uncertain flight.
Together they danced, two souls intertwined,
In the rhythm of life, their love defined,
Hand in hand, they braved the tempest's roar,
Their bond unyielding, forevermore.
Through the twists and turns of the winding road,
They faced the trials, their spirits unbowed,
With resilience etched upon their brow,
They stood united, come what may, somehow.
In the embers of time, their memories burn,
A symphony of echoes, yearning to return,
For the touch of their hands, the warmth of their smile,
Their presence that transcends every mile.
And when the dusk descends, stars align,
Their spirits whisper, in the depths of mine,
In the rustle of leaves, their voices play,
Guiding my steps along life's intricate way.
So, as I tread this path, their memories dear,
I find solace in knowing they're always near,
Their love, a beacon in life's shifting sands,
Guiding me onward, with tender hands.
For in my life, they left an indelible mark,
A melody of love, resonating in the dark,
And though they've journeyed to a distant shore,
Their spirits live on, forevermore.
In the quiet moments, I wish they were here,
To share the joys and quell every fear,
To seek their counsel, their wisdom refined,
Their presence, a balm to soothe my mind.
Yet, their love endures, through the depths of time,
Their legacy woven in this heart of mine,
In the laughter, the tears, the lessons learned,
Their spirits embrace me, undeniably earned.
So, I'll carry their essence, like a flame in the night,
Illuminate my path, with their eternal light,
And in the tapestry of memories we've sewn,
Their love forever resonates, unconditionally known.
For they are the whispers in the gentle breeze,
The warmth that comforts, puts my heart at ease,
In the symphony of life, their melody plays,
Guiding me through the maze, with each passing day.
As the seasons change, the years unfold,
Their love remains steadfast, an eternal stronghold,
In the beauty of nature, in the songs of the dove,
Their spirits linger, reminding me of love.
Through the laughter and tears, the highs and lows,
Their presence is felt wherever life goes,
In the sunrise's glow and the moon's gentle sphere,
Their absence is felt, oh how I wish you were here.
In the milestones achieved, the dreams pursued,
Their guidance whispers, their love imbued,
In the quiet moments of solitude and reflection,
Their essence surrounds me, a cherished connection.
Though their physical forms have taken flight,
Their spirits dance freely in the starry night,
In the symphony of memories that forever endure,
Their love resonates, timeless and pure.
So, I carry them with me, in heart and in soul,
Their love, the compass that helps make me whole,
For their legacy lives on, in each breath I breathe,
Their absence a reminder, of what I must believe.
In the laughter that echoes, in the tears that fall,
In the moments of triumph, and when I stumble and crawl,
Their spirit embraces, a constant presence near,
Their love everlasting, oh how I wish you were here.
In the tapestry of life, their threads intertwined,
Their love forever etched, in the depths of my mind,
And as I navigate this ever-changing sphere,
Their memory remains, oh how I wish you were here.
So, I'll cherish the memories, like treasures untold,
The stories and lessons that shaped me, and molded,
For their love transcends time, it never departs,
A beacon of light, forever engraved in my heart.
In the gentle breeze that whispers through the trees,
In the quiet moments, carried on the breeze,
Their love echoes softly, in the silence so clear,
Their presence ever-present, oh how I wish you were here.
And though I cannot touch, or see your face,
Your love surrounds me, in every embrace,
In the depths of my being, in moments of strife,
I feel your love guiding, through the tapestry of life.
Oh, how I wish you were here, to share in this embrace,
To witness the beauty, to be a part of each chase,
But your love remains, an eternal flame,
Guiding me onward, through joy and through pain.
So, I'll carry your memory, forever held dear,
In every step I take, in every smile and tear,
For your love has shaped me, and will always be near,
In my heart, in my soul, oh how I wish you were here.

What a wonderful tribute to your parents, Greg!Β I read a lot of dark stuff on here (I mean generally, not from you) about abuse and stuff that it is a joy to read something so wholesome and beautiful. How blessed to have had such a loving upbringing. How wonderful that you grew up witnessing your parents love for each other.
"She'd hum a melody, soft and sweet,
A lullaby that made the world complete,"
what a gorgeous line! It is simply filled with love and has a feeling of safety with it too. This says everything, to me, of motherly love and the strength of it. A fabulous poem that you have written so beautifully and so well. I apologise for not having seen it earlier x
epic refrain a pleasure to read
