To know that you are near

To know that you are near.

At times I think-I do not know
When flowers in my garden grow
They bloom when I am low

Is it to do with nature’s spirit
Graceful-elegant-standing tall
That claret rose will call

Or through life’s thistles-
in your warm embrace
you wrap me

For a moment bring me cheer
A smile-happy tear
A comfort just to know you’re near.

Love always

Love always

Love lies deep within my heart
No matter where you lay
Your presence comfort’s always
When life gets in the way.

Sometimes sadness grips me
Suddenly it’s there
Not knowing where it came from
For you are everywhere.

We often sat in silence
Embraced the soft sweet air
It’s alright now to cherish
Even though you are not there.
