The Last Time

The last time I walked her home from school I realized that I loved her The last time we walked down the aisle I realized that she was my bride The last time we danced on our wedding night I realized I would love her forever The last time I carried her over our threshold I realized we would share our home together The last time we held our baby I realized the gift of life my wife had given me The last time I though of our marriage I realized what a wonderful life we shared The last time I held her hand I realized she would soon go on ahead The last time I looked into her eyes I realized our love is eternal The last time I kissed her lips I realized that my heart was breaking The last time she was here on earth I realized that I would join her someday The last time I thought of her I realized how blessed I was to be in her world The Last Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One 11/27/18
