Moments in Time
Moments in Time
For more than half of my life
I was married to my darling wife
Truly my first love was she
I hope she still loves me
I loved and protected my wife
So much I would give my life
Some special moments we did share
It’s the time and emptiness now I fear
Right from the start
I was hers she owned my heart
In my daughters I can see my wife
But it doesn’t fill the void in my life
The painful days of December will be here
Her birthday and Christmas they share
January was the...

Message To Mom
Message to Mom
Hi mom listen to what I have to say
I will be sending something your way
Keep a look out for a balloon
A message I will send soon
Your favorite color was blue
That’s the color I will send to you
You’ve been gone just a few years
When you passed I had tears
We love and miss you your daughter and I
It’s not easy for a mother to die

When you passed I had tears
We love and miss you your daughter and I
It’s not easy for a mother to die

My Old Boy
My Old Boy
I’ve written about a little dog that I had
But little Maggie was really bad
I had to return her, she was to much for me
All over the house she would poop and pee
So again it was just my old Bandit and me
His health getting worse even just to see
After I lost my wife
He helped me go on with my life
Then I had to face that tearful day
To put him down was so hard to say
I still look for him in his usual place
The rooms are empty I don’t see his face
More pain and more tears
It hasn’t...

Wedding Bands
Wedding Bands
I placed a ring on her left hand
A plain white gold wedding band
With all my love this ring is from me
I also wore a ring for people to see
Today the rings have become something more
They also tie us together for evermore
Mine is still on my left hand
From my neck hangs her wedding band
I feel her in my heart and in my life
I still think of her as my wife
I placed a ring on her left hand
A plain white gold wedding band
With all my love this ring is from me
I also wore a ring for people to see
Today the rings have become something more
They also tie us together for evermore
Mine is still on my left hand
From my neck hangs her wedding band
I feel her in my heart and in my life
I still think of her as my wife

Words of Love
Words of love
From heaven I wish my wife could see
The words of love that come from me
Out of my heart and into my head
Come the words I wish I had said
From my lips to my wife’s ears
Hear the words that bring my tears
Joey I will never forget
That day and how we met
You and I started as two
I look forward to again be with you
I don’t know how or when it will be
Together again just my darling and me
From heaven I wish my wife could see
The words of love that come from me
Out of my heart and into my head
Come the words I wish I had said
From my lips to my wife’s ears
Hear the words that bring my tears
Joey I will never forget
That day and how we met
You and I started as two
I look forward to again be with you
I don’t know how or when it will be
Together again just my darling and me

Don't Cry For Me
Don’t Cry For Me
When the day comes and I die
Don’t be sad, don’t cry
I would say I had a good life
With children, grandchildren and a beautiful wife
At the end of this life
I’ll be back with my wife
All you kids I will miss
From you I’ll give mom a big kiss
Don’t cry, don’t grieve
I’ll be with your mother after I leave
When the day comes and I die
Don’t be sad, don’t cry
I would say I had a good life
With children, grandchildren and a beautiful wife
At the end of this life
I’ll be back with my wife
All you kids I will miss
From you I’ll give mom a big kiss
Don’t cry, don’t grieve
I’ll be with your mother after I leave

Deaths Door
Deaths Door
Every night I go to bed,
I could have one last thought in my head.
I have sleep apnea where I can lose my breath,
One night it could be the cause of my death.
There was a time my wife would hear my gasping for air,
My wife would roll me over or wake me out of fear.
Now alone without my wife,
Any night could be an end to my life.
I’m not afraid if I should die,
We will be together again my wife and I.
No one to hear me gasp or hear me snore,
No one here to keep me from deaths door.
Every night I go to bed,

I have sleep apnea where I can lose my breath,
One night it could be the cause of my death.

Now alone without my wife,
Any night could be an end to my life.

We will be together again my wife and I.
No one to hear me gasp or hear me snore,
No one here to keep me from deaths door.

Treasure of Man
Treasure of Man
Every man has the chance
To find love and romance
Having a family with your wife
That’s a treasure of a man’s life
Mine had blue eyes and blonde hair
A beautiful face with a smile to share
The three children we had
Made me proud to be a husband and a dad
Every man’s treasure is in front of his face
Make a good life at a slow pace
I take a deep breath and let out a sigh
To think how lucky was I
Every man has the chance
To find love and romance
Having a family with your wife
That’s a treasure of a man’s life
Mine had blue eyes and blonde hair
A beautiful face with a smile to share
The three children we had
Made me proud to be a husband and a dad
Every man’s treasure is in front of his face
Make a good life at a slow pace
I take a deep breath and let out a sigh
To think how lucky was I

Happy Valentine's Day
Happy Valentine’s Day
February fourteen twenty eleven
To my wife who’s in heaven
Saying I love you which you already know
A few other ways that I can show
I will be sending a message balloon your way
Love and kisses are a few words to say
I will light a candle for you dear
Another way to show you I still care
You do know how much you are missed
You were the first love I kissed
I miss you my love so very much
In my dreams I hope to feel your touch
Signed with love from me
Happy Valentine’s Day...

Love List
Love List
This is my love list
Joey was my wife
She is gone and very much missed
My daughter Barbara was our first one
Then came my son James
My daughter Patricia the third one
Grandchildren are Megan and Alexandra
Boys are Nickolas and Connor
Back to girls Jacquelyn and Samantha
My kids in law I almost missed
Robert, Christopher and Suzanna
And my dog finished the list
This is my love list
Joey was my wife
She is gone and very much missed
My daughter Barbara was our first one
Then came my son James
My daughter Patricia the third one
Grandchildren are Megan and Alexandra
Boys are Nickolas and Connor
Back to girls Jacquelyn and Samantha
My kids in law I almost missed
Robert, Christopher and Suzanna
And my dog finished the list

Little Dog
Little Dog
By Michael A Gelb
This last Mothers day
My wife’s little dog passed away
Holly was my wife’s little love
Both now are in the heaven above
Holly did not like the cold
Poor Holly only ten years old
I miss my wife so much
I also miss that little dog’s touch
I just had to adopt a little dog for me
This little dog named Maggie

Having A Wife
Having a Wife
What does it mean to have a wife
For me it was someone to share my life
Someone to love and protect everyday
To love and cherish in everyway
To have loved in the life we did share
To love so much and so much to care
In my heart to feel her touch
Having children and grandchildren to love so much
You will always be in my life
Till the end of time you are my wife
What does it mean to have a wife
For me it was someone to share my life
Someone to love and protect everyday
To love and cherish in everyway
To have loved in the life we did share
To love so much and so much to care
In my heart to feel her touch
Having children and grandchildren to love so much
You will always be in my life
Till the end of time you are my wife
