Connie Moore Poet Rhyme

Memories Past

Memories Past

Oh, my dear we have so many memories
 Woven into the fabric of our lives
I remember like it was yesterday 
The warm days and beautiful skies

You took my hand in yours
And we walked the sandy beach
You promised me love forever
There was no goal we couldn't reach

Oh how the memories flow
We gave all we had to each other
And I promised you all my love
And we knew it was forever

We had a wonderful life my dear
Then the children came along
What precious cargo we carried
With our love binding and strong

As we sit here in the sunshine
A slight breeze stirs the air
And as I look over at you
I can still feel the love we share

But it is time for us to go inside
I feel a slight chill in the air
It is a little bit hard for me
As I unlock the wheels on your chair
 
Oh, how the memories flow
And I thank God for a beautiful life
And I shall thank him one more time
For the time I shared as your wife.

Joseph Sergi February 22, 2014 at 11:28 AM Connie what a moving work It brought a tear to my eye. A blessed life and love you share. May God watch over you and yours until you meet him in heaven. Connie Moore February 22, 2014 at 11:32 AM thank you Joseph. It is not about me. I lost my husband going on 8 years. It is about what would have been if he had lived. It brought tears to my eyes writing it. Thank you so much for the encouragement Connie
