Until

Until

When I am gone
no space to fill,
no sound to make
no time to kill,
no tears that stain a cheek so soft,
nor fly with larks high up aloft.
An empty roomย 
is empty still..
When I am gone

When I am gone
The stars and sun
continue in their princely realm.
As winter chills dissolve to spring
andย  flowering buds are opening,
each seasons charm will leave its mark
as nests are built,and still,the lark
soarsย  high aboveย  and sings of love..
When I am gone...

When I am gone
the song we sang
will silent stay,
thoโ€™ toll bells rang
a mournful beat of pulsing heart -
now still,
remains forever yours
and will.....
until, until,ย 
and still,ย 
until......

This is yet another beautifully written piece of work....if only you were a newcomer ..you would certainly get a nomination for this!!! .. as you should have done for your last 3 pieces!ย  .how the judges overlooked them I just don't understand at all. I guess we just have to draw our own conclusions dont we?..you must have upset someone haha! .only joking ..you could never do that Lodi! Nonethelessย  we are all so lucky to have your wonderful works to read and enjoy and show us what proper poetry actually looks like....dont ever be dispiritedย  or stop writingย  asย  so many of us on here love and look forward to readingย  them...you are truly talented !ย  ย

Maybe I need to ask our resident musician,Tony,ย  to put it to music!..I do sing but don't write music at all..I'd love to be able to though! Thanks so much I'm really pleased you liked it xxx
