The rubies would have adorned her this day,
Reminding us of that day forty years ago
When the love of my life walked down the aisle
To be with me forever in our lives.
That life was so full of love and happiness,
Never a cross word was spoken
As we lived our life together as one.
Our hearts combined as we went through time.
The memories are always there within me,
And will be there forever.
Then came that day as I sat next to her
In her hospital bed and I heard her last breath.
She left this world leaving me alone
But I know she is still with me,
Her Spirit is with me all the while.
And I know that I will be with her in time,
And our forty years will go on for eternity.
