I Will Always Love You

should the sky crash down the sea come to boil winds blow all away sands harden to clay air becomes fetid tides defy moon stars cease to shine snow melts away time stops ticking I remain undaunted through it all I will still love you written December 17, 2021

This is romantical, and pretty.

I know. I don't usually write the sappy stuff, but that one, expressing my life for Deb, seemed to fit the form so well. Glad you liked it.

Wonderful. If I ever have need to write such words, Milt, I hope mine can hold a candle to yours. Terry

Well, I'm absolutely certain you can write better, but, if you need to, you can use these! I don't mind.

This loving poem to your dear wife will keep you close until you meet again. My son David died 3years ago on my grandsons 12th birthday(29th December 2018) I have his photo on my computer and I talk to him sometimes this keeps him close to me. True love never dies.

Shirley, that is so true. I appreciate your sharing your loss with me. I know it never gets better, but we do learn how to effectively cope with it.

I always told her I would give her the moon and the stars, if I could, Valsa. The only way I could do it was with verse. One of the beauties of thinking poetically. Thank you for reading and writing your comment.
