Every Time He Thinks About Her

Every time he thinks about her his eyes well over with tears Time has not fully healed his sorrow though she has been dead for years She died in a motor car accident more than three decades ago With their dark haired three years old daughter Jenny of eyes as blue as ripened sloe Linda his wife a lovely woman one of the fairest of the town Hair as dark as raven's feather pretty eyes of chestnut brown Cruel luck took his nearest and dearest time has not healed all of his pain Sadness tinged with the nice memories of his wife and daughter till death with him will remain And he never did remarry his must be a lonely life Only photos to remind him of his daughter and his wife True enough time is a healer though some sad memories of the past In the mind does seem to linger and through the years of time do last Gray haired Ted in his mid seventies one who does live on his own He does not look very healthy better days he would have known Life does have it's good and bad times of this he knows all too well And what the future does hold for us there is not one who can tell.
