He Wanted To Write Her a Love Song
He had this recurring dream…it began soon after they met…
He dreamed of writing her a love song…a song she’d never forget.
A love song as beautiful as the nightingales singing in the trees…
with a melody so light it would float upon the breeze.
He tried many times over the years…so many hours in thought…
but he could not find the harmony…a songwriter he was not!
He never found the song as beautiful as the nightingales singing in the trees…
never found the melody that would float upon the breeze.
On their 50th year together…in a card…this message…not very long….
explaining how he tried for years to write her that love song.
I’ve always wanted to write you a love song as beautiful as the nightingales sining in the trees…with a melody so light it would float upon the breeze.
Many was the day…a love song I would start…
but I could never put on paper…what was singing in my heart.
Yes, I’ve always wanted to write you a love song…but I could not find the harmony…
It is perhaps my biggest regret…and the card was signed….Love, Me.
Tears made her smile glow as she held the card to her chest…
realizing, once again, how her life was truly blessed.
“All your life,” she said, “you’ve been writing me a love song as beautiful as the nightingales singing in the trees…with a melody so light it floats upon the breeze.
“You’ve added so much music to my life…every chorus has been exciting…
and every day you add a new verse to the love song you’ve been writing.”
Tears now made his smile glow...
after years of thinking he hand't written her a love song...
when she finally made him realize...
he'd been writing one all along.
