In My Heart

Even though you are not here with me

I think of you and my heart smiles.

In the late evening hours

when loneliness would call,

I just think of you

and I'm at peace

and content 

in my 

heart,

We Moon children are so sensitive, Francine. This poem reminded me so much of my husband that the tears are flowing. A very powerful portrayal of loneliness, dear. Love, Carolyn
