The leaves were never greener
The sky was never so blue
The colours of the world
Shone so vividly
When I was around you.
You brought such hope
You gave me such joy
You helped me believe
That this blessed life is truly
A place to enjoy.
We never know exactly
What the future holds
Sometimes confusion and fear
Abound, adding to
Life’s profound mysteries.
There are so many things
I wish in this life
For me, for you, for all
Clarity of mind and soul
I wish most of all.
If it is meant to be
Love will find a way
It will see the true path,
Though destiny sometimes
Takes us on unexpected journeys.
I will not rue what we shared
I will celebrate life
And all the colours that I felt
But I will feel sad
That the end came near.
In your life
I wish you peace and tranquility
Much love and laughter
As many joyous moments as there are
Stars in the black velvet sky.
