Bobby May Poet Free verse

Clasping Your Hand

A walk through life holding your hand
Together we shall walk
Swinging back and forth as we talk
I once pushed you on a swing

I once gave you a diamond ring you meant everything
Always wherever we went I took your hand
Twenty-seven years have disappeared
My hand is empty as I walk alone
Thinking of yesteryear

The one thing most missed is
Clasping your hand

P.S. Awtry October 2, 2019 at 1:32 PM "I once pushed you on a swing I once gave you a diamond ring you meant everything" appropriately placed in the heart of this poem... so much joy and then the sorrow of the past tense. This is a special one. Bobby May October 2, 2019 at 1:54 PM Thank You P.S.! my sweet friend!
