My Melting Heart

A single flame

In a melting heart

I’ll hold it dear

Whilst we’re apart

This treasured beacon

Whilst you’re away

Will be my focus

As each day I pray

But when you return

I’ll blow out the flame

And my exuberance

I won’t contain

There’ll be such joy

As once more we kiss

And we’ll thank God

For our mutual bliss

Till then, this single flame

In a red melting heart

Shares my vigil

Whilst we’re apart

My oldest grandson (9 years old) is my friend, and confidant. He's been in Miami with my eldest daughter since June. I miss him! This poem reminds me of how much the little fella is missed. Great job dear Albert!

Much Love Always ♥
