Music can fill the heart with a lifetime of memories.


Poem Artwork



As I sat hear listening to the music
That I have loved all my life
My mind went back in time
To when I was a young wife
When we would dance in the moonlight
And you would sing in my ear
You never knew the words
But I never cared

You sang off key
But it was beautiful to me
That young girl
Who just wanted to
Be the best wife she could be

Then as another would start to play
I would remember still
Dancing with babe in arms
My voice singing so low
Holding my baby so closely
Never wanting that time to end
Sweet baby smell filled my senses
As I held her there

More songs played on
And the baby was gone
Now you were once again in my arms
As I held you in that hospital bed
And sang your favorite hymn
This time it was I who whispered
In your ear
As you struggled for each breath
“Go if you must. I love you so much”
And with a sweet smile
You breathed your last

Years have gone by
And music tried
To sooth my broken heart
But how I long to feel
That again
The rhythm of love
In the night
