A Bequest To My Love

A BEQUEST TO MY LOVE By: Elaine Randolph nee. Moreino Where are you my love today Who stays out of my reach? I dream about the moonlit nights We spent down by the beach. Those happy years we shared together, Wrapped in melody; As time goes by and thoughts of you, Make life a rhapsody. And through the troubles in this world, The grief, the pain and woe; The rapture of my burning love, Is a shield of Heaven’s glow. The many miles that part us, Love To me are but a dream; And as the years go slowly by, My love flows like a stream. When you said, “Auf wiedersehen, This is not goodbye”; You sadly turned and walked away, I don’t know where or why. I miss you so my only love, Why did you go away? I’ve waited for so many years, I’ll wait for you today. Will I ever see your face And hear your voice again? I hope with all my heart and soul, My prayer is not in vain. And when “O, Love!” I call at last, “I go now to my rest,” Spare me just one moment more, And hold me to your breast. I hear your heart beat one with mine, I dearly bless the dawn; The birth of my eternal love, My life, My Dearest One. Copyright © Elaine Randolph 2009
