Blended Acceptance By Larry Chadwick I dream of love and days gone by, My eyes mist up as I gently cry. Those simple times that have now past, That some how I thought would always last. I dream of love and days to come, My mind delights that you’re the one. More simple times now lie ahead, Enable me to embrace my past instead. I dream of all that life must be, My heart accepts the things I see. Less simple than I hoped for us, But I’ll remember all because I must. I’ll treasure then as I treasure now, My life complete in both some how. As simple as it will ever be, My past and future eternally. January 30, 2003 If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Larry--I can feel the thought that went into this, making it both tender and strong. |

Martie, You have no idea. I have had no voice for poetry for a couple months now. And yet it still is about loss. My life seems so normal but getting past such a big bump is so hard. Thank you dear. ![]() Nan, Indeed we do and that isn't all bad. Even though some of life is. Thanks. ![]() Sweet suthern, Thank you very much. ![]() Miah, You do know how to melt my heart. Thanks. ![]() Chris, It's all I know. And thank you dear friend. ![]() If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
