If Only In My Mind

 IF ONLY IN MY MIND

Missing You 💔 

 The beauty that surrounds me happens slowly with time stitching together all the colors, the hues, the glows that make up a wonderful life. If Only In My Mind

The curtains blow
The songs sound
The instruments play
The children laugh
If only for a day, they have set my heart aglow 
This thing we built 56 years ago
The musician, the man
The individual being that is so worn now
The weary tired lines
The pain he ignores
The one and only that I’ve adored 
It can’t go on
It can’t continue
But each minute, I carry within me
The beauty, the glow that surrounds me
If only in My Mind

  2. The mind is really good at sharing with the heart. So, it is wonderful to hold on to positive memories, even if only in one's mind. There are not "ifs", when it comes to the gifts that happy thoughts bring.

    1. Hi Spirit, so true, I've always loved to do a Diary when young, and then journal some now. I actually wrote this some years back kinda based on when my kids were all grown, but now it also fits the loss of my husband.

Nothing better than a scribbled comment or just a Hello. I look forward to them all..~Have a great week~ Please note that since if I reply to your comment here, you won't know unless you keep traveling back, so I try to always visit anyone who comments and leave a comment on their blog plus I like visiting anyway and making new blog friends. Have a great scribbling day. :)
