When you loved me, <br />There were always rainbows <br />In the sky, <br />When you loved me, <br />The world sang a lullaby. <br />There was a concert in my heart, <br />That only I could hear. <br />The music played on forever, <br />When you loved me dear. <br />All things great and small, <br />Knew you loved me too, <br />They sang love songs, some old <br />And some brand new. <br />The bees and frogs sang bass, <br />The flowers sang the melody, <br />Butterflies sang the high notes, <br />Birds sang harmony with sunbeams, <br />When you loved me... <br />But those days are gone, <br />Only dark clouds are in the sky. <br />The world is silent, there are no lullabies. <br />I re-read your last letter, <br />The words smudged by my tears, <br />You said our love was forever, <br />Your words were sweet and clear, <br />Words written so tenderly, my dear, when you loved me. <br /> <br /> <br />September 10,2008 <br /> <br />2: 30 p.m.<br /><br />Dorothy (Alves) Holmes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-you-loved-me/
