So many things, wistfully, I see,
In minds eye now, so clear to me,
Your tilted head, just so, in thought,
Your slender hands I so often sought,

The knowing way you looked at me,
When somewhere else I had to be,
Your gentle voice, so soothing, calm,
The way you proudly took my arm,

The way I loved to watch you dress,
Forgotten chores you did not press,
My breath you took with sultry looks,
The rainy days, the tea, the books,  

Slow dancing till the hour was late,
The many kisses now I contemplate,
The warmth we shared each winter night,
The tender love that seemed so right,

These things I see, so clearly now,
As I stand here, silently, head bowed,
The earth is fresh, the stone is straight,
I’m sorry dear, for being  so late.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Oh how sad.  I hope it is not written from an experience.  Very touching.  Love, Joyce

Just twist my little heart into knots~

This is *spine-shivers* good ... you are writing some wonderful things my friend~
I LOVE THIS ... sad though it may be~
