The Light Of My World.

Goldfinch60



It was my day,

The day so many years ago

When I was born.

I went down to My River

And walked gently

By its green waters.

Peace was within me,

I sat for a while

Watching the gentle waters

Roll passed me.

As I sat I was joined,

Joined by My Lover’s Spirit

Who had come down to me,

To wish me happy birthday.

Her wondrous smile

Lighting up my world.

And there we sat

As we did in olden times

When she was with me in body.

We walked together by the water

Going towards the end,

I stopped as she walked on

Into the world where I will join her,

Join her one day,

When I walk along My River

To join her for eternity.
