David's Song

[Alianore DeClare]

For Alianne,
In honor of your first year without your beloved. I pray my poor effort will meet with your approval. I am sure that all of our Local 69 mourns with you -

David's Song

Well it's been a year of Sundays
Tho' it feels like many more
Since the last time that my darlin' one
Came walkin' through my door

No more his smiling visage
No more my love's embrace
He's gone from me forever
Tho' I still can see his face

And he'll be no more a'comin
No more a'comin home
'Tis only in my dreams I'll see him
My darling one, my own

Our wee ones are a'cryin'
Where has Daddy gone?
I tell them he's still with them
As his love for them lives on

I shall ne'er love another
In that same sweet piercing way
For 'tis only once a lifetime
Such a love may come your way

And he'll be no more a'comin
No more a'comin home
'Tis only in my dreams I'll see him
My darling one, my own

Though cruel fate has taken him
And all has turned to ash
I know I'll see him yet again
When life's full turn has passed

I wake each day and wonder
How does life go on
But each day brings new beginnings
New life, new love, new dawn

And he'll be no more a'comin
No more a'comin home
'Tis only in my dreams I'll see him
My darling one, my own

With the utmost respect, your humble Wench,
Alianore

It's lovely.

Thank you.

[Alianore DeClare]

Thank YOU. I honestly have no idea where it came from. I was pulling into my driveway after work one evening, and it just popped into my head, so insistently that I dug for a piece of scrap paper and started writing while still sitting in the driveway. It was for some God knows what reason, yours from the first.
Having read so much of your troubles in the forum here, and with last weekend's party coming up, and you having mentioned the upcoming service for your beloved's stone, well, there it was.
God Bless and keep you and yours, and you GO GIRL!

Alliane, strength to you sweetheart.

Yeah, it did that to me, too.

And you know you have whatever you need from me, love. A shoulder, an ear, you name it, it's yours. Any time, any day. If I had a miracle, I'd give that to you, too.

Wanted:

One miracle. How about a half a miracle. How about just giving my husband the ability to read the card I got him.

Alliane sweetheart I know you are and I know you would... and you can't imagine how much I appreciate that.

[Crossbones]

He can Aries, he can.

Now I'm weepy too.
