Last Dance

During our last dance

We thought of our romance

Every moment we shared

All the dreams we dared

The journey meant for us

The God we both trust

We saw what was real

Too difficult to conceal

The blessings God granted

All the seeds we planted

We saw what we held dear

Why God was always near

What He set in stone

Why He never left us alone

We felt some affection

We had God’s protection

We saw what faith can do

How it changed our view

And we reflected on our past

While making every moment last

During our last dance

We found a treasure

Beyond all measure

Love held us close

Cause love mattered most

We shared a smile

Even laughed a little while

We saw love was the key

To what was meant to be

God was in our hearts

Where love always starts

We turned ourselves around

Landed on solid ground

Love filled every day

We accepted God’s way

We remembered our name

As we let go of shame

We removed all doubt

That God would work things out

We fit like a hand and glove

As we looked at heaven above

And took a love stance

During our last dance

Breaking Away

Leaving all our bad days

As we accept God’s ways

Finally being free

To see what’s meant to be

Seeing lessons in the journey

Meant for us only

Seeing our purpose

As it rises to the surface

Counting blessings instead

While looking straight ahead

Hanging on an encouraging word

Cause that’s all we’ve heard

Resting in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Seeing what’s by design

Knowing everything is fine

Learning to let go

Of what we used to know

Finding peace of mind

Which is hard to find

Feeling God’s affection

As well as protection

Faith removing every cloud

As we stand tall and proud

Finally following God

With a wink and nod

Seeing what God can do

How He brought us through

Staying on course

Without an ounce of remorse

Seeing who we are

As we reach for a star

Letting go of fear

Cause almighty God is near

Doing our victory dance

Due to our second chance

Ignoring our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Seeing the guiding light

That shines day and night

Staying very strong

Whether we’re right or wrong

Refusing to pretend

Cause our blessings never end

Gentle Thoughts

Sharing moments galore

Until we’re filled to the core

Surviving day by day

As we accept God’s way

Getting through every storm

Defying every norm

Finally taking a place

Filled with God’s grace

Removing all doubt

That God will work things out

Always staying close

Cause our bond matters most

Seeing what God can do

How He brought us through

Lovingly holding hands

Right where love stands

Relishing the peace

Our hearts won’t release

Feeling nothing but love

Coming from heaven above

Watching the guide

That stays by our side

Hanging on God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

Seeing that every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

Learning to let go

Of what we used to know

Seeing what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

Learning to live

Learning to give

Finally resting on solid ground

Before sharing the joy we found

Planting all the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Seeing what’s in stone

Why God won’t leave us alone

Embracing every journey

Meant for us only

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Following the light

That shines day and night

Knowing what’s for us

Believing the God we trust

Seeing why we don’t pretend

And love until the end

Reminiscing

Thinking of you

What we used to do

The feeling is strong

It remains all day long

I remember when we kissed

No gestures were missed

I think of moments we shard

All the dreams we dared

The journey we traveled

Why we never unraveled

I think of every prayer

Why God was always there

How we held each other close

Cause our bond mattered most

The moment we could see

We were meant to be

The beautiful resting place

Filled with God’s grace

Why we learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

The encouraging word

We’ve always heard

How faith was the guide

That never left our side

What we knew was real

Why it was difficult to conceal

I think of our beating hearts

Where love usually starts

Our solid ground

The purpose we found

What we crave

All the love God gave

The life we led

Why we let go of dread

How we let go of shame

When we learned our name

How our love grew

From what we knew

Why every day

Was filled with God’s way

The love dance

We did by chance

There’s nothing missing

I’m reminiscing
