Cycle of My Life

The Cycle of my Life
  January fifth was the month I lost my wife
February brings Valentines Day
  A gift with love I did say.
April seventh is our Anniversary  
  The month and day she married me.
April brings Easter Sunday
  May brings Mother’s Day.
October thirty first is Halloween 
  When kids would dress in costumes to be seen.
November brings Thanksgiving and is the fourth Thursday
  December eighteen is my wife’s birthday. 
December twenty fifth is Christmas Day
  It was my wife’s favorite holiday.
January first is New Years
  Just another day of maybe no tears. 
It starts all over again my cycle of life
  Over and over again the pain without my wife.
