Wrapped in the moonlight,
I tell him everytime,
Hold me tight, hold me tight,
Let me feel the balmy breeze,
And let it nestle in my soul,
Don’t let me go away,
Just hold me tight, hold me tight,
Across the valley,
Hand in hand, as we walked,
Over those birch trees,
Where we wrote our names,
Just hold me tight, hold me tight,
You still cross my thoughts,
Apart from me in heaven,
I look for you everywhere,
Yet I see you no where,
How shall I fight my pain,
When you are no more there –
To hold me tight!
I can never forget
So, the day began
as always with a call from the nurse
at my doorway
not sure where I am
or why there is a nurse calling to me
the breakfast tray comes
the eggs look familiar
taste like nothing
didn;t I have this same meal
yesterday?
or another day?
A cheerful young woman
fluffs my pillow as I sit
up and murmmurs something
about activities
she seems familiar.
Still another girl
cones in to help me dress.
When did I acquire servants?
Around mid-day I hear something
something that indeed I do recognize
a voice.
“Hi Mom, How are you today?”
A kiss.
She loves me. It;s my daughter.
That I never can forget.
