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
Memories live in pictures now
Grown children her memoir
A sixty year marriage vow
Over and over, she
Tells the love 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 to young to pass
She sits still, day by day
Waiting to reunite
Her shows passing time that way
A picture to remember
His face she will see then
Tenderness and laughter
Together they will be again
