Love

You have filled my heart with your laughter
and my life with your love.
Its notes are compassion, strength, and patience
Its melody... your smile.
I know the day will come when the final "goodbye"
is whispered...
Never could such painful words be spoken aloud.
When, never again will I hear your song
And my heart will beat only in
silence...

Today...
I bask in your sunshine
I dance in your smile
Your music fills me
completing me for a time
no matter how short
I sing your song
And it is Loud and Bright
It is LOVE!
