Hope By Paul Wilson For Lyra These roads you have traveled long and far Have brought you to where you are Hope has always been your guiding star You’ve shared so much over the years A thousand roads and ten thousand tears Hope has helped conquer your fears Together your love remains strong Your time spent apart always too long Hope has become your love song Each day a treasure you will forever keep A moment in time to comfort you while you sleep Hope will dry your tears when you weep Sharing all your plans and dreams How many times they got lost it seems Hope lighting your way like moon beams Starting over so many times it seems Making new plans and dreams Hope will guide you across life’s streams Hope will walk with you down memory lane Hope will be near to ease your pain Hope and friends come together in your refrain |

How gently you have wrapped her in your words, and the last line is a strong one. Beautifully done. The most valuable thing you own is a smile, wear it, and share it. |

Paul, You have such a giving heart. This seemed a good time for a *BUMP*  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
