What an absolute treat,
My loved one sitting opposite me
As we ate our dinner.
Kathleen singing for us on the player,
An absolute joy.
Then came a song,
A song I had heard many times,
But this time the fork stopped
And I was in absolute awe.
How could a voice sing like that?
Absolute perfection.
Absolute emotion.
I could do nothing but listen,
Listen in absolute wonder
At this song.
The sound penetrating my heart,
Reaching my soul.
The tears started to run,
Run down my face,
As her sound enraptured me.
It always has,
And always will,
But tonight it seemed different,
It spoke so powerfully to me.
My world had stopped in those moments,
As Kathleen came into my soul.
