Valentines

I have no words of praise tonight

That can encompass love
More aptly than this photograph
Of two, now called above.
 
They loved each other all their lives.
Even after his death
She still remembered she loved him
Until her dying breath.
 
We cannot all speak of such love,
For it is truly rare,
But I watched them live it each day
With tenderness and care.
 
If that’s the bar that has been set,
Then it has been set high.
And I might not live up to it,
But I will surely try.
 
1 Corinthians 13:7
Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
