My Beautiful Maureen Poem by Daniel Bernard Kelleher

Left behind a precious gift
That only God can bestow
My darling wife Maureen
Who he bestowed on me
She cared for me through illness
While others turned away
No one knew how hard it was
For her to see me fade every day
I knew this day was drawing near
The truth be told you knew it too
You put your life on hold for me
Gave me comfort before your needs
I hope you did not see me suffer
That day I left you behind
I got so tired of been tired
Seeing your worried eyes
The fight in me was winning
My body telling me its time
Thank you love my darling
For all you done for me
For that I was always grateful
You gave me a life of dignity
Don't mourn for me to long love
You have a life ahead of you
With my blessing my eternal love
Go and enjoy the rest of your life
Don't be afraid to talk to me
Air your troubles or your thoughts
If you feel my presence around
That's letting you know Iam O.K.
