I carved our initials in the Tree of Life.

What value has love in ‘death do us part?’

Is love a flash of light

in the long darkness of night?

 

Flesh to flesh in being born

then death without memory

unable to behold

to recall at will in deep detail.

 

Will thoughts become ashes

that are scattered in a soft wind?

My love to you dearest one

is forever more

upon the Tree of Eternal Life.

 

From the first garden

of eternal promise.

A promise of Love

never lost.

 

Love that is always remembered

in the heart of our Lord

that will never be lost

or forgotten

in the passing of time.
