She Was Standing There.

Goldfinch60



I looked up from my computer,

She was standing there

Her silver curls surrounding,

Surrounding the smile,

The smile on her face

That was always there,

Was there for all to see,

But at this moment it was for me.

Her eyes full of love

Looking at me

Showing me that love in her

That was for me,

For me alone .

She came towards me

And came into my arms

Where we kissed.

That kiss so full of love

Love we had for each other,

That love had been there for so long

And had never failed,

And never would fail.

We looked deeply into each other’s eyes

And saw the love that was within us,

Within us for each other.

She took me by the hand,

We walked together away,

Away from this world

Into that place of peace and love

That is there for us,

Where we will be together for eternity.

Then I awoke,

With tears of love streaming down my face.

  • Comment from author about the poem: It is a year this month when Joyce, my wife, passed away so expect more words like this. She will always be with me. Johnny Mathis was Joyce's favourite singer and this song is for her.

      Of course she was there for you. Always there for you in days passed and always will be. Now, though you are physically apart, you know you are spiritually as one. And I'm sure you feel her watching over you, admiring your tenacity and being a comfort in those times of need.

        So true d a, we will always be together and be together for eternity.

        With each loving memory, a loving tear is shed, whose eyes won't well up with your words

          A real heart wrench - my thoughts are with you this month Andy.

            Really good Andy. Evokes my great fear I will go first and Linda will be left to write the elegy. Sorry for your loss.

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Jerry, I can understand that fear but it is a long way away at the moment.
