Your love was and is a treasured gift
That I hold deep within my heart
Its purity and gentleness
I recognized from the very start
It came to me at the most perfect time
When I was alone and never knew
That there was a void in my life
And that I really needed you
Your love brought a change to me
It made me realize
That hugs were so much better
Than anything money could buy
Conversation and laughter filled the air
With plans made just for two
Eventually though our love
Strengthened and our family grew
I never imagined that one day
Far too soon
That I would have to say goodbye to you
But God had a plan
I’ve done all that I can
The years have passed
And now it’s time to move on
But first I want to mention
You may be physically gone
But you’ll never be forgotten
Our kids are young adults now
They’re both exactly like you
When I look into their eyes
I happily see you
Although our house holds
A life of old memories
A house is not a home
These moments etched in time
Will gladly be set free
And forever travel with you, the kids and me
From now
And throughout eternity
