DIMES FROM HEAVEN

Very moving poetry. I loved this one.

I have always heard there are pennies from heaven...i suppose there can be dimes too.

Lovely write.

Beautiful!!

Clap clap! Your poem's story is beautifully written. I simply love it! I'm glad I found this poem. It'really great. :D

Sharon ,

Thank you for this beautiful tribute. My mom is gone from this world 6 years. Every time I think I'm going to be ok, I realize that I'm not. I still get that wrenching pain in my heart when I think that she is really gone. Sometimes I want to think that she just when on vacation and she'll be back any day. I receive coins often, usually at times when things just aren't going well that day, and I do believe they're from her. Thank you again, and God Bless you!

Heart-wrenching beauty of a poem. We recently lost a family member, and I really hope we get such a subtle sign, so that the minds can relax.

Sharon, I came back to this poem because I love it so much.

I knew it! I would LOVE to trade dime stories with you!

Omg. I get dimes from my Grandpa.

Very special, and very very beautiful!

I saw your link on FB, and I can imagine that your mother's birthday must be a hard time for you. Since my Dad died very recently, I can certainly relate to the sentiments in your poem. Although I had several deep talks with Dad in the days before his death, at his funeral the minister talked about a conversation he had had with Dad that I also found comforting. The minister said my father was not afraid of death (this I knew) and that he had said that it just comes down to trust. We don't know what lies before us so we just have to trust. This is not something my dad had said to me personally, at least not recently, but can see that he lived it. And so, although after he died I think perhaps I did have a sign he was okay, mostly I think that what he told the minister is all any of us need to remember.

Beautiful poem, that brought tears to my eyes. After my mum died, literally that night, I heard the phone ring, but when I woke up there was no id caller, nothing, the next day i found out and asked who rang, nobody, did I imagine it? I don't think so, wonderful, and voted up!

I was told that if you find a shiny new penny with the head UP, that is a sign from Heaven from a loved one. I am always delighted when I find a new penny. I think it is from my beloved Mother.

Voted UP, etc.

Wow! Beautiful! I think I got a sign from my Dad a few weeks ago...amazing!

This is a so touching, Sharyn. I love the sentiment and how it reminded me of my mother's way of collecting simple treasures through time. Looking back, I now understand why she did it. Voted up+++

Sharyn, yes it would be great to meet up I know there are a few from the Cleveland area or south of it like we are. Love to meet up, that would be a treat! Ellen

This is really beautiful poetry. I love the ending.

This is a beautiful poem in memory of your mother Sharyn's. The message is so poignant and angelic. You have a nimble and powerful mind to think about the sign and get it and write about it.

I love your energy. Up and beautiful.

Dear Sharyn, I would love to meet up as well, we should try and plan something!!!!! Ellen

So beautiful this poem is of your mom, I love it Sharon, you have a touch of poet in you after all, I never knew such a thing, and your technique here is superb, I love how it flows, and the changing effects of the word positioning, awesome stuff!

Thumbs up and getting shared for sure.

Oh my gosh, we should meet up, there are a few more writers on here that I saw meet close to both of us. Well, it is a small world! I'd love to meet a fellow writer! Ellen

Dear Sharyn, Oh I so so loved this poem, I sat with bated breath from sentence to sentence! I am so sorry for the loss of your mum and am so happy you received a sign. I'm certain your mum will continue to send you dimes from heaven! Ellen

So loving and tender!

Aw, Sharyn. So previous. So touching. I love the title. I don't know what else to say. The song, too. wow.

Ever since losing my daughter, Lori, in July of 2000, we have been finding dimes in such inconspicuous places and when we do find them we know that Lori is there with us. It's like a reminder to us that she is here always. The first dime was found at the accident (car) site a few weeks after her passing. It was found by my cousin who then was only 8 yrs old. It's been almost 12 yrs now and each and every dime we find is a beautiful memory of my daughter, Lori.

How beautiful is this??

However we know don't we that they are not far away;maybe closer than they were before.

I am sure your mother is so proud of her daughter as well.

Here's hugs from my little corner of Wales.

Take care

Eddy.

What a beautiful tribute to your mother. You certainly have the gift of recognizing your mother when she is near or watching over you. May your dime jar be filled to the brim with dimes for the rest of your wonderful life! :)

Lisa

I don't believe I've ever read any of your poems before Sharyn. Nicely done. Voting this Up and Beautiful.

Bless you. You must miss your mom so much and I can see you had a good mother-daughter relationship. Your mother is watching over you, happy with what and who you are now.

I suddenly miss my mom too. Thanks for this hub, it reminds me to go and visit my mom soon.

Oh Sharon, This poem is beautiful. I'm always looking for signs and your poem spoke to me. This is my most favorite poem that I've read by you. Pinning, sharing and up +++

Sharyn, this is such a great piece and what a wonderful tribute! You're blessed with talent and I for one am glad that you are sharing it.

So touching! It brought tears to my eyes, I am honestly having a tough time without my mom still. My heart aches for her and your poem touched my heart. Thanks so much. :)

Sharyn - I can't believe I missed this and I am so glad that Miss Olive posted it for me to find:) I knew I had never seen it - because I would never forget it. I will think of you every time I find a dime now:) I will also think about a few people I miss very much....! I am sharing because I know it will be loved by all.

Simply beautiful, the imagery and rhyme was so divine. To think that a shiny dime was dropped by angels sent from above as your mother passed on her continual love. Peace and blessings to you my poetic friend.

You owe me another box of tissues. This is just so moving. She would be proud! I wish you many dimes to come!

Dear Sharyn,

I know I read this awhile back and yet today it came back again and I had to just send you a hug!...

Love,

Sunnie

This is a very touching poem - absolutely beautiful. I'm saddened by the loss of your mother and can empathize with your loss. Nothing ever quite prepares us - does it?

Since my Dad's passing, my mom has been mysteriously blessed with pennies. They literally randomly show up out of nowhere. We cannot explain them. She is convinced they are from him and I think she is right - Dad was an avid penny pincher :)

This poem was a touching tribute to your mother. I definitely believe in signs and they can be very comforting after someone we love has died.

Voted up across the board except for funny.

This was such a lovely poem. I am so glad that you found the comfort that you were looking for. I am sorry for your loss. Thanks so much for SHARING this truly wonderful tribute to your mother. Socially shared on facebook.

Wow! What a beautiful tribute to your mother, Sharyn. And you know, it's so true. When we come across one of those "signs," we absolutely know that it's from them ... this feeling of certainty strikes us, especially when weren't even looking for it in the first place. I think you captured that feeling very well in this moving poem.

Thank you for sharing!

I will say, a tribute to a loving mother. Hope you re doing great now. Be blessed.

Sharyn,

Oh, thank you so much. It means the world to me. I needed your hug. Now, I will sleep peacefully tonight.

This poem touches the depth of my soul. I continue to look for some type of sign from my beautiful boy that was taken by cancer. I miss him so much and it still hurts like no other pain. I am so sorry about the loss of your dear mother. I am sending you a big warm hug and please know that I am wishing you peace, knowing that she is preparing for the time when you will again be together. Blessings to you, dear Sharyn and whenever I see a dime, it will have a special meaning to me now.

Sharyn, I love this poem! It's so heartfelt and so full of emotion. You've made my eyes tear up. I'm right there with you, darlin'.

My Grandparents who were major animal and bird lovers have sent me birds since they've died. Sounds crazy, I know, cuz birds are everywhere. But this one Cardinal taps on the glass of the window I'm closest to with his beak and if I go into a different room, he's there within just a few seconds tapping on the window in the new room. And it isn't one of the birds that I had raised from a baby cuz I haven't raised any Cardinals in this house we live in now, just Blue Jays and one Robin and a Titmouse! Sooooo...????

Great write. Voted UP, useful, awesome and beautiful.

May peace be in your heart, sweet Share...always,

Diana

sharyn, this one brought tears to my eyes...I believe! I do believe! How else could it be? We are energy and spirit and soul and this goes on no matter what happens to this outer shell. I am so glad you received and understand the signs from your mother. This one made my day! Beautiful poetry about a fantastic experience! UP, Awesome and Beautiful!!

Oh Dear Lord...

I have a sneaking realization that our two Mammas have hooked up on Heaven's fence (swinging their feet), where dimes (yours) and quarters (but they have to be the States, mine) are being lobbed in our general directions!

Mom left me tubs of these quarters "just for you", she said! So now my sister and I will be spending time sorting enough complete sets to make up a pretty folder for each sibling, niece, nephew and the four "greats". I am adding those that I find from heaven (and some of my own) as I need 16 sets and that's a lotta coin. But I know my angel will not let me down, she never did!

Thank you for a much-needed smile and a delightful read.

Voted UP, AWESOME & BEAUTIFUL!

I lost my mother to ovarian cancer when I was eleven years old, she was only forty, but I too get signs that her love still surrounds me. Beautifully written. I look forward to reading more by you, and thank you for the follow.

This brought tears this morning..how precious is a mothers love and the memory we hold dear. I pray you will see signs all around you everyday.

Sunnie

Sharyn, lovely poem which will start me looking for a sign - I never thought about it. I'm not sure what it will be, but I am sure I'll know it when I see, hear, or feel it. Thank you!

I too believe that the dimes were a sign from your Mother...We never outgrow the need to talk to them...My mother came to me in a dream to say talk and say good bye. Everytime I see a Monarch Butterfly and it follows me...I know my Mom is saying "Hello". Wonderful Hub...I look forward to following you and thanks for becoming a follower of mine.

....well you are a very soulful writer and a deep thinker - and I always come away from your hallowed hubspace with a learning experience or some kind of enlightenment of being in the company of someone who really knows how to put words together with such an emotional and intellectual impact.
