Oh my, I think of all my dear widow friends here like you, Judi, Dolly, and Cheryl, and Carol. You're all gonna make me cry reading your words. But you have reassured me that this kind of love never dies.
Best wishes in the contest!

A lovely tribute to your late husband here which sings from the heart. It is both gentle and poignant and captures so well the love you shared. I know from your stories what a full and active family life you all led together and it must be a wonderful comfort that you see him in your dreams and know that you'll always be together as one. Well done, Beth, and good luck! Debbie

With the Grace and Love of Our Savior, you will be reunited to your love, and I to mine. Never a day goes by without that feeling of emptiness you know tht one day will be filled once more.

Beth, this is so poignant... I do believe in love eternal, and think that there is but a "hiccup" of time between life and death ~ and then the two hearts that were joined connect again on a new level until both are at Heaven's gate.

You're not convinced he's gone because he isn't! He's your guardian angel maybe... but he's with you always!

I find time dissipates faster the older we get
We moved into our new construction in 2017 and I swear it was only yesteryear .
Where it goes I do not know
Sorry for your loss

    Thank you Tom. 2017 feels like yesterday to me too until I start remembering all the things that has happened since them, like the pandemic and riot on the capital and how people are so divided and all the impeachments and trials of Trump.

What a wonderful love poem! There's no way I could compete here. Your expression of love is quite complete, especially with the hope to be forever. Definitely a winner for me-but alas, I'm not a judge! Hope they see it, too.!

A beautiful entry for the Love Poem Poetry Contest. This was lovely and hopeful for those of us who worry that we will be experiencing the same thing some day. They say that when you dream about a loved one who has passed it is them paying you a visit. I certainly hope that's true. Good luck in the contest. Great job.
