Let Go

She clung to his arm

And held on tight

All the while saying

"Don't let go."

He held her close

Gazing in her eyes

Saying to her

"I won't let go."

They walked hand in hand

Down memory lane

Renewing their promise

That they'll never let go.

He stood next to her

And she next to him

They vowed to one another

To never let go.

They sat beside each other

Enjoying one another

Hands interlocked saying

"I'll never let go."

He sat by the bed

His hand lightly on hers

The doctor gently said

"Its time to let go."

The family gathered 'round

As he knelt by the grave

Softly he said to her

"I'm sorry I let go."

Soon after he joined her

On her flight way up high

Soaring to new heights

Where they'll never let go.

Reviews

Now THIS is one of the very best ones I have read lately .
Superb in its content and flow and the lyrical singsong pattern of a nursery rhyme only serves to compliment the reading .
Great work .
