Topic: I Heard Him Scream | |
---|---|
Fantastic write! And how wonderful that your brother and God were watching out for you (even as unnerving as I'm sure it was). Morning sweet lady! Thanks for your words I'm glad you liked it! I have been in a few accidents in my life and there is always that fear factor that goes with them but in this case there was a strange peace and warmth that out weighed that feeling until it was over and I was safe. I know that my brother has been taken to Glory to sit at the Right hand of God so to have him sent back to me to save my life is a gift I don't take lightly. |

Though he is gone As an angel he came His body is dust Yet he looked the same I'd just left work It had been a hard day I remember waking To the words he did say "Sis wake up" I thought it a dream "I said wake up!" I heard him scream My head snapped up My eyes opened wide There I was driving Down the wrong side I saw the lights It was a truck I remember thinking "This is it... OH F***" Brake real hard Now crank the wheel My God what's happening It's so surreal I did what he said I braked and turned Gasping for breath How my chest burned The truck went by As I sat there Looking around Becoming aware I looked over To see him walking It really was him I'd heard talking The man in the truck Came back to where I was sitting shocked And could only stare He asked me then "Are you alright?" "Where's the walking man?" "You both gave me a fright" I said to him then "I'm so sorry, I'm OK" There wasn't much more I was able to say Then he left Letting out a sigh I looked around And started to cry I threw rocks and screamed Then sat on the ground My world had been Turned upside down On the other side Facing the other way I'd fallen asleep And my car'd gone astray I sat a long while Torn up inside I found myself sitting Right where he had died This man is my brother I carry with me Now he's my angel For all to see This is a thing that really happened about two months after Lurch died. I still get chills thinking about it. With God all things are possible... Always near Dear Vicki, thank you so much for emailing me with this... i got chills right to the core of my being ... i do believe this happened so strongly.... oh, how beautiful...How touching.... How sad...How happy Oh, so many emotions running through my heart & mind i can only imagine how you feel... . and the truck driver who saw the Walking Man ... your Beloved Brother was actually there |

l_s,
This is beautifully done. It would seem to me he knows this has been ex-treeemely hard for you and you needed proof no matter what he will always, always be there for you. The lesson of love; true deep unconditional love cannot be absolutely proven in the physical alone. You and your brother have a very rare and wonderful relationship. Yes, I said have. You know all this. Finish the grief cycle so you both continue to grow in this love, trust it and have faith and you both will do what you need to do and still some how continue to share the experiences of the other. Much love................ |

((((Susan)))) Thanks you both so much! This man is an amazing person and I so treasure the love he and I still share every day. He is with me no matter where I go and no matter what I do. After I wrote this poem and got it posted I felt warmth and a sense of pride not coming from me but being given to me and it was wonderful to feel that coming from him. Sharing him and all he has meant to me is the part of the grieving process that I am loving so much. I'm celebrating his life and sharing the love I have for him with others and that is like a party all in itself to me. |
