Mom

In her eyes a hero
The man in a uniform
A tear as she drinks her tea
Three years and she still morns

A beauty, a soldier
Lives lived in pictures, now
Grown children left for time
A sixty year marriage vow

Over and over
She tells the story
About the two lovers
In their days of glory

A locket worn daily
Many pieces of life lived
Memories held so dear
So special the gift God gives

He was too young to go then
She sits day by day
waiting to reunite
Her shows passing time that way

A rose to remember
His face she will see then
Tenderness and laughter
Together they will be again
