A POEM FOR YOU

Everytime I bring forth your image
From deep within the well of my mind
My heart begins shedding joyous tears
For your beautiful love that's mine

I can never escape feeling all the emotions
For they seem to overwhelm me each day
But just like the very first time I embraced you
The raging passion of my love will always stay

I was blessed the day you embraced me
That first moment you became my friend
And ever since your spirit held me close
My life changed as I was truly born again

You have never forsaken me a day
Of the spiritual things in life I need
And I love those very special moments
When your living word we together read

While I lift up my song of sweet love to you
Your daily showers of heaven's joy begins
I humbly thank you for giving your life's blood
A perfect Easter sacrifice to forgive all our sins.

That Sparkle In Your Eyes

The fire never seems to dim,
nor the sparkle ever goes away.
Neither does it seem replaced,
by the sunshine of each  new day.

So soft are the memories of your love,
while you are away from me,
as your image does flood my mind today,
so that your face is the only thing I see.

I know that you think of me,
as much as I think of you;
because I feel it with every breath I take,
burning inside of my heart so true.

The purest treasure in my life's world,
can truly only be found in you.
The most beautiful acts of love in my day,
are found in everything you do.

Only inside my heart can one really find,
the raging fire that never seems to die.
For it is always fed each day that passes,
by that sparkle that’s found in your eyes.

Until We Meet Again

Who will wipe away my tears,
While for the love one I lost, I weep
Who will now help me rest so easy,
While at night I try to fall asleep

Who will embrace me ever so tightly
Or who can ever take your place,
Who will say my name the way you did
Placing a soft smile upon my face

Where are you now my sweet flower
When I need you most in my life
Where is the sound of your joy and laughter
That always made each day so right

For my eyes grow tired from weeping
And my knees are weak from prayer
And I cannot let go of what I lost
When you were taken away from here

For every time the door bell rings
Or the telephone announces a call
I jump in expectation with a fervent hope
That from my life you did not fall

And yet still my mind grows weary
As I once again try to fall asleep
For I can't let go of the love I miss
When your image my heart always keeps

Until we meet again.


One of  three written (9/11) while the events unfolded,
