Sweet Memory
Our hearts met there,
Long ago, on that spring breeze
Whispering gently, sweetly
Moments light, yet so vibrant
Boldly dreaming, never leaving
The soul alone to grow old
Without the love that compares
To nothing on earth – it is so rare
Our hearts swelled with the feeling
The trust, the longing, the passion
Wonderous love – so joyful, lasting
Kissing away the darkness with a smile
So sweet, so mild – like the silence
Yet filled with kindness and inspiration
Stirring dreams to come back to life
Long after their heart had seen such strife
Our hearts ached for the beauty,
The sigh of grace – the intimacy and praise
Amazing, alive, brilliant as the starlight
Covering the night in such radiant hope
Silencing the doubts, the fears, the tears
Bringing back the sounds of life, the love
Reverberating through the tenderness
Enlightening and awakening pretty serenity
Our hearts knew the love that comes alive
Inside the ones who believe, who agree
To be a part of the connection, the home
Where two can become one, a bond
More powerful than the sun or the stars
Clear and sparkling with wisdom, thriving
On the remembrance of such giving
This was the moment, this was the hope
That brought my heart to believe
In the truth of happiness, the gift of joy
The love that only belongs to the ones
Who are willing to give without conditions
To live without apprehension… to love
Without limits, with a love that is endless
A love that is forever, always, abiding
Inside those who know that this love is life
This love is the reason that we were given
These moments in this place…
Where once there was a love – a love
That taught the heart poetry and promised
The soul to never let go of the feeling
That means God has given His gift to these
Two who know the meaning of empathy!
Once there was a love and this love
Taught my heart to breath
My soul to sing and my spirit to cling
To the everlasting dream
Love that will never leave me, forever bring me…
Its memory – sweet memory!
