Love letters tied in a yellow bow
Saved on a shelf so long ago.
Written through love and passions flame
Only Mom knew what the pages contained.
Sugar coated words with paper and pen
Mom said their love would never end.
Love Letters Mom and Dad wrote for each other
In Mom's eyes there could never be another.
Dad was at war ....they missed each other so
His letters meant more than he could ever know.
I can still see Mom as she devoured every line
Tears in her eyes from time to time.
Love Letters hiding the heartache within
Teardrops had fallen where words had been.
Time has passed and love still blooms
Laughter now fills our desolate rooms.
Mom and Dad ..still holding hands
They beat the odds..their love still stands!!!
