         Anniversary
    
    We married on this day
      in nineteen forty eight.  
    Now I am left alone
      to celebrate.

    So many years ago,
      and yet just yesterday.
    The end came much too soon,
      To say goodbye.

    Now that we are apart.
      It matters not,
    He is still lingering
      within my heart.

   Not sad, just a little melancholy.. best martyjo.

(big angel hugs) Oh Jo, I'm sorry to hear you had to endure that sort of heartache before as letting go of love after a long time can indeed be a difficult thing to cope with! (hugs) Bless you, dearest friend, may you forever cherish the most precious memories on this day and know we are always here too if you'd like to talk, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

jo, as you have learned, the pain of loss does lessen with the passing years, but special occasions do have a way of bringing it all back.

I felt your words and give you a loving hug,
Linda

Special occasions without a loved one are painful
and a touch melancholy..
Sending heart hugs your way.
