Sprinkles
Little bits of you are sprinkled all over my life
Sometimes Almost a day goes by and I haven't thought of you
I wonder if there will ever be a day when I won't
I sit in a glorious sunshine
On the swing you drilled holes for
Mezmorized at the beauty of it all
Your coming and your going
How perfect it all was and is
How beautiful my children are and will be
How hard I tried and would have continued to try
How beautiful I have been in the face of despair and how beautiful I continue to be
My heart is so full love
Basking in the joyous grief, of all that I had lost and all I have gained through you
