“Looking Back”


 


 


I looked back today


To all the pathways I walked in my life


I could see all the winding roads and turn-offs


All the highways and cry-ways


Even by-ways


And I know the footprints of my life


Was planned long before I took my first breath


And every step tells a story


As I see every cross road clearly now


But through all this


You stood by my side


And when ever I was lost and lonely


You came to my rescue


Because you knew I was only human


And without me even knowing


You kept an eye on me


And kept me in your heart


You held guard over me


And kept my dreams alive


Dear friend


I feel it in my heart


You are always there


To pick me up when I am down


And you always leave me with a smile


How can I ever thank you


For being the good friend you are


We are connected in spirit


You are so precious to me


And I want to say this


“ I love You”


With all my heart


Dear Heart

I'm often so struck when reading one of your romantic but unfailingly honest poems that I want to ask you where you went to school to learn to do this. I'm with Kate (below) re: card verse. This was outstanding!
