Golden Sands

Dedicated To: Evangeline, My Beloved

As I thread upon the golden sands Which leads to thoughts of you? I think of the years, shared together From the treads which laced our dreams

They come at night to soothe my soul This fills my heart with love As I view the total beauty which lies within my grasp I run my hand along your side, as I touch your silken strands

I think of all we've accomplished, since we became just one And wishing to go back, to relive our youth again For in the roads we've trodden, in our march thru time Has brought to us a life so rich and so sublime

Filled with love along with laughter, amid the tears we've shed Which helps to wash the pain, we’ve shared along the way Leaving only memories, to keep within our hearts Our life has been a blessing, for all these many years

All that I have ever been, is due because of you As I gaze upon this women who made my life complete I'll pray for God, to bless, the remaining years And to thank him for what he's given, in our trek thru life's embrace

One final thought I'll leave behind As I drift back to my dreams Grow old along with me; my beloved For the best is yet to be
