He smiles at her warmly through tear filled eyes
Dreading the thought of saying goodbye
His mind drifts back to another place and time
When he said to her “my dear please be mine”
He opened a box upon bended knee
Her eyes welled with tears yet twinkled with glee

The years flew by so fast so happy they were
He knew he held the world when he was with her
She loved him like no other he had known
For in her arms he had found his home
They met when most considered mid life
He knew the moment he saw her he would make her his wife

The years passed quickly much too quickly indeed
Gray in her hair, his starting to recede
She still saw in him the most handsome man
Smiled lovingly and longingly while holding his hand
Non-verbal she was at this point in time
Yet her eyes said to him, all would be fine

He sat by her side reciting a poem
Of the time that he made her his very own
She struggled to speak yet no words were found
He looked over at her a single tear trickled down
She looked up at him and mustered a smile
He felt her emit “love you my darling see you in awhile”.

The house felt so empty what would he do
How could this happen I must be with you
He sat in his chair her sweater in hand
Out of the pocket fell, her wedding band
Attached was a note tied with a bow
I love you my darling more than you know
You brought to me a wonderful life
No happier time did I have than being your wife
A man so gentle, so loving and true
I found all these things when I found you
You must let me go now hold onto this band
Bring it with you when you come and put it back on my hand

He could not fight back uncontrollable tears
He longed to go back to the beginning of those 30 years
When he held her at night and sometime she cried
Tears of joy just to be at his side
How could anyone love so deep and so long
He found in her his sense to belong

He smiled as he thought of a time in the day
When stuck in her hair was pieces of hay
He chuckled out loud as he remembered that time
Good God I miss her will I ever find
That beautiful angel that once was mine

They found him on her pillow they say
One year since her passing to that very day
He went in his sleep and clutched in his hand
A crumpled up note and her wedding band
Everyone knew and stopped on a dime
A love like they shared was forgotten in time.

Some say that on that day of the year
A faint whisper can be heard…
I love you my dear
