Life

Life is good
Life is sweet
Life is simple
Life is busy
Life is imperfect
It's the imperfections in life
That mold us into the people
That we are
But in spite of those imperfections
Life is complete.

Together Forever

When he holds my hand,
My stomach does somersaults
When he kisses me,
My heart skips a beat
His hugs are so comfortable,
I could stay there forever
Just knowing he is by my side,
Is a comfort that I feel anywhere
His favorite CD
Just happens to be mine too
He has this fanatic obsession
For the same thing as me: Cars
He doesn't have a degree
But what does a plaque on the wall
Contribute to love?
The five best words he has said to me are,
Guess what? I love you.
The silly things he does
Make me smile.
We don't have to do anything,
We have fun just being together.

The Smell of Rain

Enjoy the small things in life -
A rainbow peaking through the storm
The fresh smell of rain
Homemade chocolate chip cookies
By enjoying the small things -
You can better appreciate the big things -
A double rainbow on a blustery day
A visit from a long lost friend
Wedding cake on your special day
The birth of a child
Enjoy the small things in life
They happen everyday
Appreciate the big things in life
When they come your way.

Alex

My best friend was a puppy
A sweet delicate life
Full of love
Swimming and playing together
His wet tongue licking my feet
The essential love felt true
In the moments I will always recall.
The winter death leaves a void -
For eternity.
