It was over a bet! Yes a bet
between you and your pal
and I'm so happy
I choose you babe!
We were only seventeen
and we went on to have a big
family four boys and two girls
Everyday I smile
even if I'm upset or slightly angry
I still smile!
You worked long days and nights
to get us to where we are today
I sure did miss you lots but it's
been worth it , our house is small
but it somehow works well , we stick together as a family
we are like birds flying in sky!
I remembered when my bro passed away it broke my heart in half
I saw sadness in ways I never knew existed , days seemed to never end and that silence planted one fear after another , until I lived only deeply inside and not outside!
I kept running and running
and seem to never stop!
Then one day i climbed
out from behind my eyes
and I finally woke myself up
and you were still there
waiting for me with your big smile and hearty laugh and now we finally getting married next year thanks to our four older kids who have so beautifully offered to pay for our wedding , tis going to be a most wonderful day making all my winter days seem warm outside and leafless trees will
seem like the first day of spring
and when it snows it will glitter so awesomely upon earth ground
that the sun will shine like a summers day :)
