Anniversary

Today is our anniversary Marking years of happiness and bliss All I ask if you on this day Is your continued love and a kiss Padre

It’s been too long since I stopped to say That you inspire and lift me every day Not only are you my poetic muse But you comfort me when I’ve had bad news Always there with a listening ear Even when you aren’t so near You make the time just for me Lifting my heartContinue reading “Inspired”

Contented

Your time home is all too short But it is for me as pleasant as a blossom-filled breeze The concerns and stresses of the daily grind Your simple presence always relieves I am contented, my heart fulfilled As we relax in each other’s company complete and chilled Padre

Linked

“What did you eat? Where did you go?” I’m not spying, just want to know Little tidbits to feel linked and connected So, the sense of togetherness won’t be affected For a few sweet moments each parted day I can at least pretend you’re not away Padre

Autumn Rest

May The Time Fly

Gone away when duty called Again parted like in a past recalled But together in spirit and a purpose agreed It is but for a short time as is the need So, let us work and let the clock move fast So that the mutual absence doesn’t last Padre

Morning

I woke to summer’s day green and bright Birdsong announcing the end of night And though while pleasant to behold It was still lacking, if truth be told For you were not there to share it with me Robbing it of the lustre others might see For no matter how wondrous might be the dayContinue reading “Morning”

Rend

The time has again come for you to depart Leaving me with a weepy heart While your going my heart does rend I know that your return will it mend I hate that you must work away And I look forward to when at home you can stay Padre

Worth Repeating

There are those moments When I just need to say That you are the light of my life And brighten each and every day And while it’s oft repeated The one thing I must say Is that I love you And it will always be that way Padre

Flower

If you were a flower I’d be for you a vase For in my life You will always have a very special place My arms for you are ever waiting For you to cuddle – hold You, oh little lamb of mine Have prime place within my fold The centre of my daily thoughts WheneverContinue reading “Flower”
