Such Simple Joy

Love's an emotion that is known to all Since the very first day we are born The degree of love and intense infatuation Can be just like a summer storm From a gentle shower to a thunderous roar It exhibits the power of the rain The depth of love can be similar in intensity Can be powerful or a simple refrain A feeling that lives down deep in our soul Like nothing that we've ever felt It can often leave us weak and trembling Slurring our words as we melt Nothing else in our multitude of emotions Can even come close to this joy Like the day our child takes it's very first step Or young love between a girl and a boy As time marches on, many things diminish In intensity, in depth, in passion But one thing that will forever remain Love will never go out of fashion

I will never forget my first wife Linda! She passed away from breast cancer in 1999! :(
