The Carolina sun sets low in the sky As I take one final look out the window Amazing to think how much has happened in this last year How fast life flies on by So many things have changed in my life As I take a moment to reflect and let the memories play over in my mind Allowing visions of you and I to simply rewind That spring day when you and I first met I can still remember like it was yesterday The way you talked and walked Made me feel like I could simply fly or float away Love started out as friendship and blossomed like a rose Creeping up slowly, almost out of the blue Until one day I realized I was falling deeply in love with you When I realized you felt the same My heart was full of glee And the love that we have shared Has helped set us both free So today now all this time later I once again make this golden promise to you To stand beside you forever In all that you accomplish and do Never shall I leave you Forever I will stay And you know in my heart The truth of these words that I say Time has proven us right Love has withstood mountains and obstacles galore And now all that remains is A lifetime of love & happiness for us to explore... Laura, I love you! |

Very sweet moment of reflection from you my friend. So nice to see you penning of your love freely and with so much heart in it. Loved this one as I am sure she will. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |

What a wonderful poem. Im glad to see that you are still out there and still madly in love. Thanks for replying to my poem by the way, Ive been gone for a while and wasnt sure if anyone would remember, you made me feel like a person in here, rather than just some other poet. Great writing. KM Even in the darkest night, someone will be there holding a candle for you. |

Amy love, this is a beautiful poem that so clearly writes your heart. It is indeed a golden promise, and I know that you will be truly happy. If love were a reward for having a golden heart you would be the first it would be given too. You and Laura deserve happiness, and you will live the dream too, I know you will. Happy ever afters were written with you two in mind I'm sure. Look after yourself, keep your love in your heart and soul and remember that destiny is a promise. Take care Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
