stopping and

paying respect

will

continue

 and the 

heartaches

will never

end.

stopping at a

Roadside Memorial,

looking at the

remembrance items

family and friends

have left behind.

paying my respect and

walking away knowing

the person still lives

in the hearts and souls

of others.

stopping at the next

Roadside Memorial,

reading the messages

that tell of being missed.

paying my respect and

walking away knowing

the person lives on

in the body and mind

of others.
