Book of Love

He glued down all of her pictures

And wrote the dates upon the side

In the order when they were taken

Of his lovely blushing bride

Then he taped the old love letters

He'd written when they first met

Then sprayed it with her perfume

A smell he couldn't forget

He pressed a rose inside his book

To remind him of her smile

Then he put in all the valentines

He was able to compile

He taped down both their wedding bands

A promise, he'd planned to keep

He loved her 'til the day she died

This love he carried so deep

As he fumbles through the pages

He thanks the Lord above

On its binding he writes with tear stained eyes

This is our Book of Love

I love your writing, you really know how to balance writing. Simple yet beautiful, something both an armature and an expert can still smile while reading. This is really lovely Whisk...On its binding he writes with tear stained eyes..you've really mastered your art.

This reminds me of my Grandfather when my Grandmother passed. Their love was the greatest I have ever seen between two people. Even when they were well advanced in years, when their song "Faded Love" came on the radio, they would drop what they were doing and dance, dinner could just burn. Thank you for the walk down memory lane, my friend.
