Until Then

Remembering when you held me close
the tears run down my face.
I can't remember just what you said.
The fear in me was erased.
I cherish the moments we shared 
together In your rocking chair.
I look back in my mind 
how you were so kind.
and I felt so loved and secure.
I miss  you now that your gone.
I keep your memories in my heart.
It's been 30 years since your hand held mine
but I still think of moments and our special time.
I rejoice in knowing that when my life is at an end
I will go to heaven ,that I will see you again.
Until then I will hold you dear to my heart
I will embrace what life has to offer until I shall part.
