A Forever Love

A Forever Love

Her thoughts were deep

on that rainy day,

as she walked along,

she reminded him,

of the forever love they shared,

of the first time they met

and how the love light had gleamed.

She knew he remembered,

the day he had proposed,

it was the day,

that he’d had a plane,

blaze his love for her –

across the skies.

They had vowed their love for one another,

on the day they had wed

and on the day of their first anniversary.

They knew that they would love each other –

forever and a day.

There was no rhyme or reason,

to how they lived,

they had always been free spirits,

never having the time to really settle down.

Living day to day,

she saw the smile that crossed his face,

every time she did something –

that delighted him so.

The stray kitten she’d saved by the river,

the stray dog he’d dragged home,

through all the ups and downs,

the smiles and the frowns –

they went on loving each other.

There was never any doubt,

his blue eyes always sparkling and twinkling,

the love light ever glowing.

The kisses they shared so much like mellow wine,

candlelight dinners and dancing to old romantic tunes.

She went to reach for his hand,

as the sun came out,

a rainbow appeared in the sky

and she sighed,

as she placed the rose –

on the gravestone.

She knew he was there beside her,

would never leave,

as long as she still roamed this earth

and would be waiting for her –

at the end of her days.

As the sun became brighter,

she looked up and smiled,

reached out for his hand,

knowing he was there

and followed the rainbow –

all the way back home.
