Sitting On the Steps of a Church
sitting on the steps of a church
on a brisk autumn day
with nobody in sight
leaves are falling
birds are singing
it is oh so quiet,
and i am off work again tomorrow
once upon a time
a very special lady joined me here
then a very vicious monster quietly
attacked her from the inside
today will mark year 16
i hold her favorite perfume
in my left hand
bobby goldsboro is singing about honey
i too am looking at how big
a certain tree has grown
we carved a very simple poem on there:
'equal love from two
will always reign true
when it comes from two hearts
made of identically similar parts'
that poem is on my mind when i give God Thanks
for her presence in my life and her overall inspiration
to the man that i am now
though i still curse the very vicious monster,
i still feel Bless Everyday for the time, though brief,
that i was so very honored to share with her
aprecio tu amor siempre, mi dulce ángel.....
