After Forever

After forever when I can no longer be here When memories start to fade don't fret I'll always be near my dear An evening while out fishing, feeling lonely because it's me your missing That's one of the very best times to be reminiscing I'll be right there beside you with each cast of your fishing pole As you sit fishing in one of my favorite honey holes When you feel the warmth upon your face from the sun It's a kiss and caress of my hand for you Hun When you find yourself chilly due to the weather That snug tight fit is me hugging you just like your sweater When the gentle breeze lightly tickles as it blows through your hair It's a sign from me letting you know that I'm there When you hear the birds and crickets playing their songs I'm singing for you too, in your heart I've been there all along With the creeks steady peaceful flow My love will be with you wherever you go When you smell the scent of pine in the air That's me pining for you, letting you know I still care I'll be your cloud cover when the fish bite the best Always protecting you, I'll be that eagle soaring high above its nest When you start to fade to grey and you feel your heart begin to break I'll add a splash of color and be the beautiful vibrant flower pedals you see beside the lake If grief overcomes you in the midst of a storm and frozen on a standstill your numb with too much pain I'll be raindrops of encouragement enticing you to dance in the rain Don't think like the salmon that we had a great run Our precious time together will never be done Tall, proud, and strong like a solid oak tree Let all of these things remind you of me While sitting on the bank watching a beautiful sunset I'll be the waves crashing over you, you'll never forget If you decide to go out on your boat I'll be your life vest that will help keep you afloat Out fishing in nature is where we'd share some of our very best dates You had me hook, line, and sinker, didn't need any bait For you my loves, in heaven you're all well worth the wait You will always be my fishing partners and very best mates On evenings when the fish just won't bite I'll be the stars that help guide you home and light up your night I'll be the silhouette you see dance across the water from the light of the moon Don't be in a hurry to get back to me too soon When you catch a fish and think back to how I'd always catch the best ones Your right, it's you and our kids and after forever when you's catch up we'll have even more fun 12/16/2017
