Your Gift
A Poem for E 
By Michelle Morris
February 2009
 
You are a precious gift from God;
I loved you so right from the start.
No matter that fate our human bond has ended,
My heart so broken;
My life upended.
 
The reason is one I cannot get,
I am but human,
A tiny spec,
In a universe so infinitely large,
My life’s problems,
Seem like such a farce.
 
The lesson in this,
I cannot tell,
A punishment for me
That loved you well?
You my darling one,
I wanted you so dear,
You were my everything;
You were my sun.
 
God’s answer to me
I know would be,
I loved you well,
So perfectly,
God’s blessing in
All one day I’ll see
No matter though –
For me, you remain
My precious gift –
Eternally.

I love you.

Victor Buhagiar January 28, 2023 at 1:37 AM May I give you a word of advice? A poem a day keeps the soupers interested (revised proverb). This is a pity because you wrote a highly emotive poem worthy of notice. Michelle Morris January 28, 2023 at 7:20 AM Hi Victor, I don't understand what you mean? Could you please explain it to me? Thank you, Michelle
