Love songs


     She looked out her kitchen window with tears of love falling down her cheeks, she was remembering him and how he would sing to her. In the morning he would sing her a song, his beautiful voice burning into her heart with each note. He sang from deep within himself his voice, his words piercing her  soul. She carried that song with her throughout that day and all yet to come. When she was unhappy for some reason he would sing her an uplifting song, taking her hand and dancing with her as his beautiful voice filled the house with happiness. She never knew when he would break into song as sometimes he would in the strangest places, like the grocery store where he would start singing songs from old records he so dearly loved. People would stop and listen showing their appreciation with applause which he ate up with a smile as big as his voice. As age caught up with them he continued to sing to her sometimes not remembering every word, but she did as she had listened to all of them for so many years. Theirs was a happy marriage, a happy life, it was a life of song and expression from a quiet man with a soothing voice that she would miss so very much. As she looked out her kitchen window she saw him standing there in his Sunday suit holding a bunch of wildflowers softly singing to her and she smiled a little smile softly humming the melody of true love.
