As I Step Back In Time

as I step back in time 
and again you come into my mind 
When I was your wife 
and we lived in Koppel PA 
it was a wonderful life 

as I step back in time 
you love playing your country music 
all the time 
some days I though I'd 
lose my mind 

as I step back in time 
it seem unreal you have 
been gone 10 years ago today 
I keep you in my memory ever so close 
you never seem to fade away 
I was married to you for 25 years 
what can I say 

as I step back in time 
I work in child care 
you as a Boss at the medical center 
it was a wonderful life 
we did share 

as I step back in time 
today I remember when we 
said our I do 
and all the things in our 
life we went through 
but I would not be where I am 
if I never had met you, 

As I step back in time 
Aug. 16 2004 my husband jerry passed away 
so I write this poem and to share 
but mostly to show jerry even though 
he gone I still care.
