In a song by \u201cThe Burned\u201d he sings a tune of time,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTime is overwhelming me\u201d he sings the song in rhyme,<\/span><\/p>\n

Under clouds beneath blue skies I chase memories,<\/span><\/p>\n

The memories of you begin beyond warring seas,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I remember long ago I\u2019d see you in visions and dreams,<\/span><\/p>\n

Long ago you were my waking angel it always seems,<\/span><\/p>\n

Long ago I said that I belong to you anywhere you go,<\/span><\/p>\n

Wherever you may go I\u2019ll be the man that loves you so,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When you were but fifteen I again gave my heart to you,<\/span><\/p>\n

I said please take my heart wherever you\u2019re going to,<\/span><\/p>\n

My heart is filled with forever love that is never ending,<\/span><\/p>\n

Take this image of my heart for the love I\u2019ve been sending,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Said love is never ending dear love, I give you every beat,<\/span><\/p>\n

Dear love my love is never ending, take my church seat,<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember little angel that I protect you with my life,<\/span><\/p>\n

For a lifetime I\u2019ll be your guardian once you are my wife,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

No matter where you go take my love for you wherever you are,<\/span><\/p>\n

Carry everlasting love near your heart to dream beneath a star,<\/span><\/p>\n

If I\u2019ve passed on in a warring foreign land I\u2019ll will myself there,<\/span><\/p>\n

To care for you and watch over you, I\u2019ll protect you anywhere,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But I survived great turmoil to return home to just you,<\/span><\/p>\n

You knew and I knew too, what it was now time to do,<\/span><\/p>\n

When we first saw each other that May Day in seventy,<\/span><\/p>\n

It was in our eyes to marry without words needing to be,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve loved you fifty six years or more without doubt within,<\/span><\/p>\n

I never doubted loving you but with certainty love did begin,<\/span><\/p>\n

My heart will belong to you beyond our time and even more,<\/span><\/p>\n

The blood within against vessel walls increases love\u2019s score,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I will remain yours and seek sixty years more married to you,<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s no greater honor than to be your husband in all we do,<\/span><\/p>\n

Tonight we will make sweet love as we do most every night,<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll kiss your lips, whisper words of love and hold you tight.<\/span><\/p>\n

The End.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Patti, by Pat. I love you sweet angel!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
