I wake and rise to the morning dew

And it’s not unusual that I think of you

 

Another wondrous morning on God’s great land

Just one thing I miss, the touch of your hand

 

It’s bright and warm, a great time for birds to sing

Just a reminder of the comfort you used to bring

 

As I sit outside and capture the beauty of nature at it’s best

I often wonder if you are safe and your soul is at rest

 

You see, I’m contented now, I’ve learned to live

You just get on with your life, to share and to give

 

The lessons I learned throughout our days

Will stand me in good stead in so many ways

 

So it’s to you that I name this glorious morn

I thank God that I met you and the day you were born.

Wonderfully well written. Tribute to one's beloved wife. Still alive though passed into eternity. Where she awaits your arrival.

Nearly perfect in your choice and treatment of theme.

Happy trails,

Ed Bradley.

what a wonderful tribute. four years this month I too lost a loved one. you are a grand person who lives not in sorrow but in the joy that you shared continuing on with her not as lonliness but as the beauty that she was and still is.

This was my first shot at writng poetry Dody and it was the fond memory of my late wife Dianne that prompted it, so she still pushes me along now and then.
