Is it a coincidence?
I don’t think so
I could make a playlist
first your song
then two of his -
songs of remembrance
the two of you
sitting there
in heaven
sending us
beams of love
just like I saw
in your eyes
at the end
with that angelic smile
telling me forever
your love is endless
And if I were to make that playlist, here it is. The first three songs played in a row. The other soon after and only reinforced the feeling of them being right there.
- Wagon Wheel by Old Crow Medicine Show (One of Mom’s favorites, though she argued for a different version)
- Landslide by Fleetwood Mac (A son that played after my son died and always made me cry)
- Hallelujah by Jason Castro (One of my son’s favorite songs, he had three versions in a playlist of his.)
- I Will Remember by Sarah MacLachlan
