PEOPLE UNSEEN
From Justin Lesh's Aunt
8 Jul 2006

"People Unseen"
 
Through our pain
Each other, we embrace
We all now meet
In this familiar place
 
Not ever knowing
Each other before
But through our children
That we adore
 
We light their candles
to ease the hurt
Keeping them shining
With words of comfort
 
Whether writing a tribute
In the early a.m.
Or something as short
As “I’m thinking of them”
 
Being so thankful
For the prayers that are said
And feeling all the hugs
through the words that are read.
 
The love that we send
And what it all means
How important it’s become
From people unseen.
