Poems from the Heart

POEMS FROM THE HEART

When you walk with the one you love
for fifty years and more
A lifetime is locked in the memory’s store,
Some of the difficult things you shared before,
And the tender things you shared
with the one whom you adore.
Looking back over all the passing years,
at all the joys and fears
You recognize that underneath you both
are God’s everlasting arms,
That have carried you, and kept you both
from everlasting harms.
Such love, long lived, is a precious thing
That makes the humble heart dance and sing.
