Grateful For You
=========================
Grateful wouldn’t describe
The love I feel for you —
To say we bond does no duty
To the essence of two.

Erasing our sad memories
And replacing with only good,
Paints a picture of happiness
Between you and I that’s understood.

Through all your hardships
And all your losses;
Distant from failing,
Living life under crosses.

Sad to go,
Watching you onward —
You and your children
Heartfelt, honored.
