A MOMENT IN TIME

A MOMENT IN TIME

In this life at 68, The Lord has yet to take me through His gate
I wondered when and how that would be, then shrug my shoulders as it is not up to me

Continuing cooking, cutting up tomatoes, my husband called me while mashing potatoes
"Hurry to the bedroom, they are playing a song, that has made me think of you all my life long"

Busy as I was, I was curious to see, what song made him think of me.
Down the hall, opening the door, my husband took me in his arms, we slowly danced on the bedroom floor

The melody surrounded us like a cocoon, safe in his arms lost in the tune
"I have waited for you all my life" were the words of the song
We danced in that moment so long

A moment that brought tears to my eyes, My husband asked, "Why do you cry?"
This moment, a gift you made mine, is a precious moment in time.

Back to the kitchen to do my chores, Treasuring a moment I will remember forever more.

Love to my husband Jeff, from Shirley
