Years have spun by with my love as deep as the ocean
As gold as the sun
As blue as the sea
As iridescent as a star
It has felt empty in spite of my efforts
the before & the after
the here & the gone
the path as been barren & empty
These days are finally full in my remembrance of you
My fondness of the good moments & the tenderness and understanding
No matter what-I will miss you & love you Always
Written on 5/10/19 as our 40th wedding anniversary and the 15th anniversary of your departure approached
Obviously my emotions were talking to you--
