Fifty years of love for one another, a lifetime for most
while still living entangled thru the heartstrings of my soul
I loved you then and, I love you now my dearest ~Claude
hold our unforgetable moments closely as time continues on
We'll share good with bad only in the smallest breaths of time
and my heart will beat a special rhythm of your forever love!
I shall return someday to finish our beautiful journey together
to show you my key to happiness that was meant for you and I...
Growing old together has kept our souls young for all eternity
and I wouldn't change a thing in the precious pages of time
long as you keep walking within those memories of my mind.
I love you my dear ~Henri
Author notes
My prayers are with them both. We never forget
time just allows us a moment to catch our breath
and teach us the reason we held each other so tight
Leave your kisses upon my pillow for me to dream my precious Angel
Henri, wear your tears proudly & never grieve on anyone elses timetable
my prayers are with you and so is your loving wifes spirit ~God bless!

You always write so beautiful.. I find your poem so very heartfelt and very close to the heart. Good luck in the contest.. XKahyX -
dear gary,
the generosity and innocence of your heart never ceases to amaze me ... I feel like in the presence of a very little child who is still connected to God and Heaven and does not know the ways of the grown-ups yet ... or in the presence of an angel whose only mission here on earth is to ease the pain and grief of others ...
since I know of your own trials, I am even more touched that you have not hidden in a dark corner, but that you are now sharing the fruit of your own beautiful tree that has grown with the fertilizer of grief and sadness, to feed us all ...
thank you, precious angel,
with much love and respect,
marion

We all grieve differently and it is as you say, never use someone else's timetable nor be made to feel as though your grieving is not up to par. We do need to grieve though so that the sadness does not turn to anger that is never dealt with. Anger is part of the grieving process and in time turns to depression. (why am I going into all of this??? ) I was very nice to see some of your work again. Best wishes in the contest.

It made me cry. I could feel so many feeling in this write.I like your author notes. I agree with you after the death of my husband and brother. Death teaches the reason why to love and cherish it. Life and love do not last forever. It touched my heart deeply.
