Time
This smile has been fading
since the year of ‘92
Off his Lovable, caring lady
But if only you really knew.

My Dear Michael, I do wish
I could tell you, no detail small
But I’ll highlight our major parts
Right here, no time at all.

In my life I have never met
Such a charismatic man
Who truly lived everyday
and acted like Peter Pan.
He saw life as a gift
Every morning needed a smile,
We woke up bright and early,
If only it were for a while.
We’d dance into the night,
He’d bring me flowers in the day,
‘For you, my loveable caring lady’
That is what he used to say.

We loved, laughed and shared
Talked adoringly about future life,
We were together till the end
And at twenty he made me his wife.

Our house wasn’t all that much,
And we barely had a dime,
We made our house into a home
what we valued was our time.
We were blessed with our children,
Smitten by waves of love,
He taught them all they know
From the Earth’s ground, stars and above.

Grand kids completed our family
You were all his world, it’s true.
We still laughed, danced and cared
Before bed saying ‘I do love you.’
These are my dearest memories
I long for one more dance,
Only seems like it was yesterday
When he had me at first glance.
You were all his world, it’s true.

These are my dearest memories

Every day I sit and wonder
How fast time passed us by,
Only seems like it was yesterday
I heard our first born’s cry.
How fast time passed us by,

I heard our first born’s cry.
The highlighting has been done,
Of my life spent with one man,
who treasured all In sight
and promised he was Peter Pan.
Even then his pride still shone
Though pain was seen in his smile,
We continued to wake up bright
But we haven’t now for a while.
In my dreams we are still dancing,
He’s still picking me flowers every day,
‘For you, my lovable caring lady’
I can clearly, still hear him say.
