What If Land

What if Land Here I am at seventy-two, lonely realizing that I miss you. Time flies fast when you are young in a flash your life is over and done. By accident I met you one day. At last no longer, I needed to pray. My soul was filled with pure delight, before too long you were my wife. You loved me like breathing fresh air. With each gasp to breathe, I was there. We had those struggles like you do, but never a day did you seem blue. Each challenge was tackled, like riding a roaring wave. We had sunshine, yet.. there was rain, I never perceived you in such pain. Remembering some wonderful times, your loss is enormous I cannot deny. ‘What if’ I had not seized that chance thirty seconds to convince you to dance. You said ‘WHY not!!’ without a second thought as wholeheartedly in to me you bought. I learned a lesson with others I want to share, What if land is filled with many a tear. Copyright Elle Smith 2017
