Wishing you were somehow here again...

Memorial Day for Americans is a three day weekend break away from work...for many workers.  It has become a time to take a long weekend and celebrate whether in town or out of town.  There are some more serious roots to this "holiday" for it was meant to be a day to honor the dead...those that fought in the wars on behalf of the United States of America.  And now in many ways it has been expanded to be a weekend of remembrance of those that we have loved that have transitioned before us.

Today while on the drive to visit both my parents graves as well as my sister's grave, I momentarily was listening to Sarah Brightman singing "Wishing you were somehow here again..." on the car sound system.  The words from this "Phantom of the Opera" song seemed so appropriate that I am including them on this post:

"Wishing you were somehow here again,
Wishing you were somehow near.
Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed,
Somehow you would be here.

Wishing I could hear your voice again,
Knowing that I never would.
Dreaming of you won't help me to do,
All that you dreamed I could!"

Thank you Andrew Lloyd Weber for these poignant words.  As I gaze at these pictures, I wish that somehow they were here again...and wishing I could hear their voices again.


Thankfully their voices, their faces, the laughter shared...is anchored in my mind, heart and soul...and as I am typing this...I am hearing their voices once again.
