Anthony

'Twas on a sunny day in May Along the banks of Fundy Bay When I met… my dearest Anthony From a distance…I could see His rugged frame…and symmetry And the glint of Irish eyes…of bluish green With manly strides… he lingered there Along a path of grasses… where The sun reflected on… his golden hair And with a glance… he stole my breath I could not still… my heaving breast With every step he took… I nearly died Overcome with… such profound emotions… that I could not hide ~~~ 'Twas in that magic moment… that we fell in love Blessed by heaven… and the angels up above And with their keeping…we were married… in the month of June Underneath a pale misty silken silver moon ~~ We built a house… upon a hill…that overlooked the harbour With a winding path… to the door… that walked… between the arbour And there… among the sea salt roses… and the ocean breeze We lived and loved and raised our family The years went quickly sailing by Sometimes we laughed…sometimes we cried But through it all…we never left…each others side For…we had that kind of special love… that never dies A love…that asks the reason why I stand upon our path and cry As I look out to the ocean...where you lie So overcome… with such profound emotion… wishing I could die
