Where You Rest

Oh, my love to have you

As close as this beaded bracelet

Wrapped around my delicate wrist

So each time I dream of you

I caress smooth rounded stones

Of your gentle soul, and hold

You safe to my breast where you rest

Forevermore

  3. Yes. its is always good to have an item that recalls the relationship you had with the person you loved. If you have been married more that 50 years like me, you would have a few!
