You had a talent for bringing special meaning to life,
It was such a pleasure to be your wife.
You helped me to grow and to realize the fullness and the beauty in our lives,
Every day I counted my blessings.
Then God called, and you went away.
Out of this world to a brighter day.
Suddenly my life of gladness
Turned to utter sadness. My grief wears me down,
I shed so many tears,
AS I recall your love and devotion through the years.
For your sake and in memory of your name,
I pray for strength to do things the same.
To reach out, to fill the hours with useful ways,
To comfort, to cheer and have no more empty days.
I try to console myself – it was God`s greater plan, So I must learn to live with it, if I can.
You moved away to His splendid home above,
I know you will be waiting there for me, with love.
Though Heaven and Earth divide us, and the distance is so great,
I count my blessings for the years you were my husband.
I will live my life remembering, while you wait, slumbering.
My beloved, my friend, my lover.
