Robert Andrew Lyle Poet Rhyme

Lost Love

Laid his head on crisp white cotton 
Her vision almost forgotten 
Now faded dreams combine with new 
Bringing to mind a paler hue 
  
Of how it was with her still near 
Filling his life with so much cheer 
The looks, the smiles, the gentle touch 
He’d never loved a girl so much 
  
Yet now it seems so long ago 
When they had met and got to know 
Each other like an open book 
A little nod was all it took 
  
For each to understand and see 
How much their love was meant to be 
A gift to each from up above 
Of never ending perfect love 
  
Death tried to break the bond they made 
But faith it came right to his aid 
 Promising him an after life 
To go and spend with his dear wife 
  
To shed the burden carried long 
Alone without his wife's sweet song 
To fly so free to take her hand 
And join her in the promised  land
