As I sit alone so far away
I can’t seem to find the words
Those feelings strong at last are here
So long have been unstired
The love I feel is life and breath
And all the world to me
No more in pain I feel no shame
You’re all that I can see
It’s not always the one they see
That makes a man a man
Your love comes to me through the air
And tells me that I can
Do all those things I want to do
To fill your hearts desire
In truth you are my all in all
Your loves my life my fire
You’ve shown me how to live my life
the way I should have done
And when I tell the world of you
They’ll know you were the one
that gave me strength and held me close
When life seemed to up away
I feel you near me, ever near
Though now so far away
I live in a world of miracles.
I wrote this for my wife a few months before we were married. After more than 20 years of marriage and blending a family of 6 grown children, 10 grandchildren, we thought we were finally going to settle into the life we’d always knew was coming.
Then in 15 quick months she went from not feeling well to her last days at home in hospice care, Then she was gone.
That was 14 months ago.

Over the years our friends nearly demanded we write a book about the road we took during our time together. I’m sure it will become obvious that I’m not a writer. I’m doing this because I’m supposed to and I’ve learned that when I’m compelled(a word I’ll use a lot) to do something, I don’t ask questions. So please don’t let misspelling and bad punctuation bother you. It doesn’t bother me anymore.
So what am I doing? I’m simply going to explain how someone who, to the whole world seems to have lost everything ,can say they live in a world of miracles.
I’ll have examples of things that have really happened to me and through me. Over the past year I’ve tried to take notes. I’ll try to post those miracles as often as I can. It will be up to you as to whether or not you believe.
