Pastel Reflections

As each morning goes, I shall remember you, when life was beautiful and simply unvarnished I shall remember you when each day unwinds, with memories of dances among our garden's flowers As we became lovers through twlight I shall remember you in each season when the sunsets change a rainbow's hue and kisses caused time to slowly still I shall remember you in times of laughter when every smile was quickly caught then woven into baskets filled with love I shall remember you in quiet gentleness holding every fiber of life until you left still holding my hand I shall remember you each time I cry in the darkness and open my soul to let your memory breathe as the days turn to tomorrow and yesterdays wane As each morning goes, and each day unwinds I'll remember you When life was beautiful and unvarnished when we knew only love I'll remember you, I'll remember you Inspired by Pastel Reflections by Kevin Kern contest Pastel Reflection sponsor Craig Cornish

Utterly beautiful!!! I have not even heard that song yet. I get a bit melancholy working hard at difficult challenges like this kind and maybe not even getting a spot on the winner list! I've been doing a lot of the easier ones while I am here on my little vacation in Kentucky.
