Timeless Love

They met at first around sixteen,while they were in their teens. A young man tall and handsome, a girl with many dreams. Years later they did meet again this time he was smitten. It took some time to hook this girl, eventually their history written. He had a plan to marry her and move her from her home. She'd have to leave her roots, the only thing she'd known. Leave her home and family was what she had to do, The love they shared was eternal even though it 'twas brand new. This love they shared was a gift,their faith was also strong They both loved many similar things like fishing, books and song. Seven children blessed their lives, they started their own tree So strong this love they shared, became one large family. Both worked hard to raise them, devoted to each one, They shared their love equally to each daughter and each son. Education and faith were important, practiced with daily prayer They fed and clothed this family with love and tremendous care Each child was very different and different paths they took. Educators, artists, builders, Lawyers and even cooks. Each child found their partners, some added children to each branch. All love music, all loved to read, a few even like to dance. Their children had more children and the two were greatly blessed, With lovely grandchildren with many traits that both these two possessed What remained from the love they shared twas passed down through the line A love this strong must be shared and it surpassed all time Four generations have now developed from these two whose love began So many years before when both had shared a plan. Each twig shares a piece and resembles one or the other For this love story that's been described was about a Father and Mother I'd love to say they share a life together here today But God had different plans in mind, for one he took away The void he left was devastating to everyone you see Hardest on the one for which he shared atop the tree The plan these two created at the time they were entwined Continues on by one so strong , who giveth all of her time To the tree these two created which grows branches to this day The love created by these two shall never go
