A valentine to DW

You don’t know me
Or why I call
Your blue eyes stare
As at a wall
But I know you
My blue eyed girl.
My heart can leap
Emotions swirl.
You were my princess
Long ago
In summer heat
and winter snow.
We swam with sharks
And walked with bears
We skied down hills
Without a care
We loved and laughed
and played and cried.
We shared our love
As sunlight died.
We kissed on curbs and
Painted rooms
Beaches, Churches
King Tut’s tomb
five and forty years we had
Daughters called us mom and dad
Now you sit,
my blue eyed treasure
Our life was gold
By any measure
The memories
are with me still
I can’t forget
I never will.
