Cold to the touch
my fingers turn a blue
Memories of winter days
take on a different hue
The blizzard that you choose to live,
has left you somewhat broken
I think of words that were unsaid,
and feelings left unspoken
The ice has left the sidewalk cracked,
traversing it is rough,
Your skin is lined and weathered now,
you still think your so tough
We shoveled snow as we got hot,
and shivered to the bone,
I would have gave you my old coat,
if only I'd have known
It's freezing in the room you left,
I can't quite shut the door,
It's time to put on my tool belt,
and get up off the floor
The sun is shining through the glass,
the window begs to see
How a new soft summer day,
really can change me
I send to you on angels wings,
A ray of warm sunshine,
I bid you a brand new adieu
I hope warmth with it brings
I walked with you upon a path,
that we had to walk on,
although our paths go different ways,
some things are never gone
A bit of you within my heart,
will live like an old song
I'm grateful for the times we had,
and that on earth I knew
A friend that helped me on my way,
a soul as such as you
I hope that you will choose to play,
and nourish your new garden,
and let the light melt all the ice,
the cold can be forgoten

her sweet song of laughter
