Days Gone by...

An Elderly women speaks of the days gone by...

Days Gone By...

Her eyes of emerald glisten

like the innocents 

Of the first day christen

She speaks of days gone by

as if it were yesteryear  

She then begins to cry

Holding in her hand a bottle

Filled with sand from  Hawaii 

She speaks in full throttle 

Choppy is the sound of her voice

Yet lovely, she then exclaims

She is her husbands only choice

She sailed on her honeymoon to Hawaii

On a grand ship

She then speaks of her husband highly

One thing she remembers

Is his cherished first hug and kiss

This all took place in the middle of December

He told her his heart was hers forever

and ever

They married and took vows never to sever

Oh such a lovely poem… I had grandparents married for over 75 years, after my grandfather passed away, my grandam passed away a =couple months later, they say she literally died of a broken heart.

Thanks Rock and Roll! That is wonderful how your grandparents were married for 75 years. I love stories like that. Grandparents are cool!
