#225 My Sweet Amalie Poem by Jimmie Arrington

Hard times arise, as we all know,
Summer turns to a blizzard of snow;
But through it all, I’ll never let go,
My sweet Amalie.

Harsh storms arrive and then they clear,
Hope will shine, then disappear,
But through it all, I’ll be right here,
My sweet Amalie.

Life brings joy then makes us grieve
With dark clouds that twist and weave;
But through it all, I’ll never leave,
My sweet Amalie.

Disaster strikes, splitting hearts in two
And calamity makes those hearts turn blue,
But through it all, I’ll be with you,
My sweet Amalie.

Death may lose or death may win
But neither matter in the end,
You have more love than you’ll ever spend,
My sweet Amalie.

Don’t dismay, don’t be affright,
Throughout your day and through your night
And as you dream, I’ll hold you tight,
My sweet Amalie.
