patience


Poem
from Ronni Faktor

by
Patience Strong

The
years will fall like autumn leaves upon his memory.
The touch of Time will ease the heartache, gently, tenderly…
It cannot always be like this; the agony will cease.
And I, resigned, shall find at last – my healing and my peace.
There comes a time when grief must end and sorrow pass away.
Never will he be forgotten – but there’ll come a day –
when I shall remember him without a stab of pain –
happy in the secret knowledge that we’ll meet again.

(Patience
