As my body grows 
frail and weak 
I may struggle 
to lift my head 
from a sleep
but don’t cry for me
hold my hand
talk to me 

We had so many 
years together
remember those times 
the times when you smiled

We have had 
many blessings 
in this life
a life with you
a life with those 
we called friends

I have no regrets
I understand 
you may be sad
but our love 
our friendship 
stood the test
we had many 
beautiful years
there will be a time
from your arms
to my father’s arms 
I will go

Remember to keep 
the Lord in your heart
in that way 
we will be
together
he lives in my heart
the Holy Spirit
will guide you now

I love you baby
smiles for you

Your Husband


Edward J Ebbs

Written for a contest, but still from my heart.
