I'll tell you my dream.I want to be in love again. For that love to
be my last.I wish to run home to her
waiting arms every night make love to her till I can't breath.Forsaking for her all others feel her
sweat pour over me, like a waterfall.To
have the rains wash away my sins baptizing me in tears of joy.Fall asleep to the beat of her heart, all the
while her whispers caress my ears with "I love you". Play on the
beach sharing our deepest fears and grandest joys.Wake not knowing where I end, nor where she
begins.Drink of her love till I
drown.Look at the moon each night I'm
away, know she’s doing the same.Close
my eyes, feel her heart touch my soul, and know she has shared with me
something precious.Walk hand in hand
through the park at 85 stare into each
others eyes not seeing the years gone by, but the priceless love within.I want to die in her loving embrace from a
life well spent.All the while the
lofting sounds of laughter, pour through my window, as grandchildren play hide
and seek, in the fallen leaves of changing colors.To the sound of the lonesome whistle down the
river the steamers would roll.I dream
my last words to be “I love you".The last sounds I hear to be the new life crying down the hall belying echoes of the child that will take my
place.A loving tear from my beloved
wife and son, I'd pass from this world with a smile.

It was this story that found my wife for me. For all who ever dared to dream of the great love in life. I thought of this dream and carried it with me all my life. I intend to live it and take it with me to the end. My great great grandfather immigrated to the United States years ago from Ireland. And though I never had the pleasure of knowing him. Be it enough for him to know I am thankful and happy. To him I say "thank you for my life". His spirit lives within my heart!

This is beautiful and made my heart swell. You describe the love so vividly. I hope that you have this love; I think everyone wants this kind of friendship, this kind of devotion and love. Well written. It made tears well up in my eyes. I love your use of language, it adds to the beauty of the piece. It stays in my mind long after I have finished reading the piece.

You're welcome! Of course I will accept, it is a honour to receive your request.
I loved it Tate ... I felt every word and you sure left me with tears in my eyes by the end.
Love is more than a feeling .. if it's shared .. appreciated and above all cherished, it is life's essence. Finding a heart that sees within yours, a hand seeking the comfort in your hand, a whisper of softness in your ear is enough to make the darkness turn into light that completes your personal growth ..... Thank you for sharing .. I sure will vote for this one.
