FOR LESLEY

Don't cry my girl,
Dry your tears.
I'll help you dry them hun.
The night consumes us all at times,
But morning brings the sun.

And each dawn brings the promise,
"All is well", go back to sleep.
"I am waiting for you very near",
So there's no need to weep.

You and I have loved ones lost,
In the shallow pond of time.
The distance seems far greater,
In the deep ocean of the mind.

We've looked at times for answers,
And at times we've been confused.
But let us not say love was lost,
Mistaken, or unused.


I send these thoughts dear Lesley,
So I can help you see,
We've touched each other in a way,
Unique to you and me.

We'll not let memories of loved ones lost ,
Drip sadness in our cup.
You'll make a tasty pot of happiness,
And I'll help you drink it up.
