Truly a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing! They have led a good, honest life. I hope I can be so fortunate.
I went into my bed
my body told me I was tired
but sleep eluded me
my thoughts turned to you
I closed my eyes
and met you in the stars

I held night
saw it sparkle
twilight arrived with
your face carved
across my dawn
holding the essence of you
in my bones...
