Forever and Today

Today I gave to April my memories and my heart I let myself hurt for her with thoughts that would not depart I gave her precious feelings and held her in my mind I still posses that part of April that couldn't be stolen by time I gave to God my message that I've always had for her I'll always keep her in my heart allthough sometimes it hurts And i sang the song God gave to me just like I'd sing it to her And with the words I gave my soul the most valuable thing on earth I love you from the distance it is from heaven to here I love you from time beginning to even if time ends not there I love you with my being like I was made especially for you I love you with what love is a desire that will always be new

Dear John, I know it will take quite a bit of time to recover from the loss, but part of April will always be with you. I know this from experience. You will be in my prayers. The "Daydream" poem was just based on a painting for a contest. It wasn't from personal experience. Stay well, my friend. Love you, Carolyn

How sweet, John. :) Love like that is rare...cherish and nurture it. I love the ending of your poem...Such sentiments of love and longing. Beautiful. Sorry for all the mix ups on my poem. Honestly...I'd post to you and it would go to Richard...REPEATIDLY! I so enjoyed your comments. I was a bit disappointed not to get your full signature, but....one must keep trying, eh? Hugs
