Love poem by my mother
My parents were married on May 3rd, 1924
Mother wrote this poem a few years later:
“If I could give to you one only gift
To hold forever, in remembrance of me,
Twould be the peace that enters in the heart
When love comes there to dwell, all silently.
I’d wrap it in the silver of the moon,
And tie it with the distant purple haze;
I’d seal it with a baby’s little smile,
And send it so, to gladden all your days!
