In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Calvin and Benita Williams and Sons

To The Jordan Families:

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Pam (Nookie) sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. I know how close you and your mother were. I can remember how everytime I use to call down your mother house looking for you and she would always fuss at me for not coming by to see her. I wish I had stopped by there to see her. But just hang in there Pam (Nookie) and remember your mother is in a better place now and she is free now without anymore pain and now she's watching over you and the kids.
