Memories

Tender little memories of some word or deed,

Give us strength and courage when we are in need,

Blessed little memories help to bear the cross,

And soften all the bitterness of failure and of loss,

Precious little memories of little things we've done,

Make the very darkest day a bright and happy one.

Unending Love

Only through the years of patience and sharing

Do you earn the priceless and rich joy of caring.

And memories are treasures time cannot destroy -

They're made of pure gold without any alloy.

And those happy years so devotedly spent

Bring you a harvest of peace and content,

For life and its problems are only a blending

Of a love that's divine and also unending.

The image at the top of the page came from the Art Renewal Center. It is full

of gorgeous 19th century work in public domain. I highly recommend this site.
