Love Held Me

There was a time love held me close
And whispered in my ears.
Love strong enough to keep me warm
In winter of my years.

A love so dear it paid the price
For sorrows yet to be.
So priceless that I keep it locked
In deepest memory.

Joyce,

Very sentimental. I too add my name to the long list of "warm hugs" that have already come and that are still yet to come your way. God bless. -Bob

This really spoke to my heart...struck a chord you could say. Thank you for sharing, I think it will just have to go in my library. Yanno that feeling when someone takes the words right out of your mouth? Well I think you just did that but made them more beautiful than I could!!

Dear Joyce,

I don't think your poem was meant to make us weep, but it did bring tears to my eyes.  Thank you for the gentle reminder of how great love truly can be.
