In the throes of our love <br />.................................I became alive. <br />The lamp of my soul <br />.................... still lights well my way. <br />Reaching out to our star <br />................................ I find on arrival <br />The mem'ry of you <br />.............................invites me to stay. <br /> <br />Forasmuch as you gave <br />........................fresh meaning to life <br />And taught me what only <br />.......................... freedom can bring, <br />I salute you with warmth <br />...................... dear friend, as rightly <br />You stay ever close, <br />........ you, who made my heart sing.<br /><br />Fay Slimm<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/reaching-out-20/
