Still More

Yesterday, That was all of it Now all it was I lift up my candle In tribute to you For an unwritten promise Is what we have. Today, here and now I cradle the baby in you And smile At the grown man you’ve become And the tenderness That still is in you Once and for all time Turn to Him For i knew without seeing When you signed with Him That contract And He promised never to leave you If only there you would stay. Today, now and here This is all there is- Wonder at the smile we still enjoy A release of burdens The lightness of hearts When only I wonder Could there still be more...?

There can always be more and perhaps less. Time has a way of revealing the answers.
