(Miss all the family that just left my house today. What a great time of loving, laughing, crying and sharing hearts. Thank you, thank you. I love you all…)
A good, deep weary fills my bones
Reminding my body and soul
That good, deep talks have filled my home
Great love taking its toll
Emotions spent, and spent so well
A sweet investment made
Body worn from little sleep
A price I gladly paid
A few more wrinkles from the laughs
Eyes red and sore from tears
A few more pounds from chocolate shared
But no such things I fear
For love was bouncing off the walls
Loud and fierce and strong
Leaving marks with every hit
That will last a lifetime long
I’ve heard it said that love is blind
A good thing, I suppose
Then maybe those I love won’t see
My swollen eyes and bright red nose
A good, deep weary fills my bones
I let out a thankful sigh
Once more sweet love has left its mark
On those I love and I….(I know, I know….it should be “me”…)
Well said, dear lady. It doesn’t sound like your reoccurrence of shingles got in the way, else you are quite the trooper! HUGS! from Vancouver.
