As I travel the road of life with my wife I am reminded of the sacred nature of marriage and the wonderful doctrine that it can be eternal. As a man and his wife journey together their physical bodies will certainly age and eventually die, but their love is eternal. I wrote and dedicate the following poem to my wife on our 43rd wedding anniversary in an effort to communicate that though the physical man dies, the spiritual man lives forever as does his love for his wife.  As Soloman wrote: “Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it.” (Song of Soloman 8:7)

“Kisses From My Loving Blue Eyes”

They are so soft that you might not feel them

Down deep in my heart to see’um

They are kisses from my baby blue eyes

Falling softly on you from the skies

Not felt nor tangible to the touch

On your face and lips they gently brush

They are kisses from my baby blue eyes

Falling softly on you from the skies

But they are real ev’n if not to the eye

They go forth as sparkling deep sighs

They are deep kisses from my azure blue eyes

Falling softly on you from the skies

Not felt nor tangible to the touch

On your face and lips they gently brush

They are deep kisses from my azure blue eyes

Falling softly on you from the skies

And if the years should rob me of vision

They will still escape their prison

They are sweet kisses from my graying blue eyes

Falling softly on you from the skies

Not felt nor tangible to the touch

On your face and lips they gently brush

They are sweet kisses from my graying blue eyes

Falling softly on you from the skies

In life or death they always traverse

Across the majestic universe

They are deep kisses from my loving blue eyes

Falling softly on you from the skies

Oh sweet kisses from my loving blue eyes

On wings of angels forever they fly!
