For DB…. He’ll always be watching over you  ❤

 

Days go by, more slowly now
Since you left me, here, to stay

God took you to a better place
I understand that more, each day

The sands, on which I find myself
Quietly sitting, reflecting life

Are cold and damp, without you
As my soul is filled with strife

The surf that endlessly beats
Though we two, are now apart

Reminds me of how much we loved
You’re forever in my heart

Still, I can find some comfort
In the storms, when I’m feeling low

For I know you’re watching over me
Each and every time I see a rainbow

Lying in a field, of purple and green

The beauty of nature, like I’ve never seen

Captivating colors, in a bottle so small

Uncork the top, and let everything fall

Out into the meadow, awash in the field

The scent of the gardens, to this I shall yield

A promise, you must experience this

The glory of nature is, quite purely, bliss

Young love, is always an elfin treasure

Joyous and carefree, by any measure

Through the forests, they romp all day

Dragons about them, watch them play

He’ll pick a flower, for his dear one

She’ll sigh with happiness, it’s only begun

He’ll make a promise to her, a solemn oath

That she is the one, of which he’ll betroth

For elfin beings, together, will stay

When two souls merge, on the forest pathway

Broken windows, shattered dreams

Within this house, invisible screams

Memories of those, now left behind

It’s so unfair, but life’s unkind

Pieces strewn about the halls

Crumbling pieces, of the walls

Rooms, in tatters, torn, disheveled

The forgotten ruins, of a devil

Now cast aside, this demon roars

Furniture thrown, against the door

Stairs that lead, to no certain place

A man of honor, now disgraced

What he refuses to condole…

 

…are the cries of every tortured soul

Sitting under that big old tree
Reminiscing about younger days
Thinking back on how we were
How the time has slipped away

Remembering the past
How we held it oh so close
Laughter, love and memories
Was what we cherished most

Sunlight shines upon us now
With a warm and tender glow
Calling us to journey forth
We have so far to go

Yes! Change of plan, change of pace
We’ll relish the time ahead
We shall never forget who we were
But remember who we are, instead
