Permitted To Stay

A love lives inside
a tiny thought
that’s born inside
my heart each day

She’s more than a
memory, and a valued
part of the joy that
in my world stays

And the thought of
her is like the sun
which at the break
of dawn does rise

For just as the sun
shines its first
golden rays, in that
same way does shine
her eyes

And the thought is
a valued treasure
full of true love’s
eternal bliss

The thought will daily
cause deep hunger and a
desperate need to taste
of my love’s kiss

As she lives within
my many thoughts of
her which come alive
each new day…

She is the love,
the only love that
inside my heart is
permitted to stay.

Creative lines penned. Great that you care for God, your wife and home enough that you keep them in constant thoughts and memory. Sara
