Opening my eyes at the break of day. <br />Looking beyond our window, far away. <br />Water draping the frosted glass, <br />brought back memories of our past. <br /> <br />Each morning’s light was graced with your smile, <br />especially that morning, we walked down the aisle. <br />Renewing our vows just one more time, <br />hearing our church bells beautiful chime. <br /> <br />Pleasant memories survive life’s grief, <br />for you were taken by a drunken thief. <br />I lay thinking of you but cry no more. <br />We’ll meet again on God’s heavenly shore. <br /> <br />Written: May 13,2008<br /><br />Melvina Germain<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-pleasant-memory/
