I Still Dream (Rondeau)

I still dream of my love in the brightness of our days When we walked along the beach our love ablaze When I held her in my arms my own sweet song Through life’s challenges our love remained strong Of birthday cards presents and daffodil sprays Or picnics in a field under a tree where we’d laze Where lost in that limpid blue of her eyes I’d gaze It was in my own heart that her love did belong I still dream of my love Our love was pure bliss and never did faze It grew stronger and stronger a flame to a blaze We thought love would be forever but we were wrong But nothing is forever and nothing life long An angel claimed her and left me in a daze I still dream of my love
