Much, Much

So many years have slipped away

More days & hours passed

Where did they go & where was I

It all happened so fast

The happiest memories I treasure the most

And still put a smile on my face

Are those you created with all that you did

And nothing will ever replace

You always had gum & candy & such

Plus all of the things that you baked

You chipped all the glue from those fake fingernails

No matter how thick or how caked

I made a man of cardboard that time

With his own guitar & chair

I forgot about him but you sure didnt

I'll bet you hes still sitting there

Such pride in your eyes that none could mistake

So abundant it near overflowed

Amazed & impressed with all that I did

Your heart, soul & face clearly glowed

You never lost patience & never did shout

Never glared or frowned down on me

Just dished out so very much love & affection

And all unconditionally

Your hands were so soft & smelled so sweet

Like petals from fresh fragrant flowers

I still smell it now, a smile on my face

The feeling can linger for hours

They say there are angels that walk here on earth

If you look you might see them around

Im sure that you're one though I never saw wings

And a halo your head never crowned

So dont ever think for one single second

That I havent thought about you

My love & my prayers are with you so often

You're with me in all that I do

Those memories are jewels so priceless to me

Every hug, every kiss, every touch

And though I'm not there to tell you myself

Just know that I love you much, much
