Sweet Devotion

Staring into plastered wall Looking far beyond the fall There was a place, beyond the pay where wonder lit up every day A place in which fields of hope led young couples to elope And in the sky, faint but there the stars smiled and warmed the air This place I treasure in my heart Hide in plain sight till I depart But with another it is best shared; I give to you reason to care This paradise of my creation Shall forever bond us loving nation Though mortal coils may fade and rust Keep faith and love; stay strong and just Consider what is truly worth and every time you close your eyes Until the day of your final rise Heaven is together, upon this earth
