Norma Lou Baker Poem by Rhonda Baker

How can I leave you when there are gardens to tend
How can I leave you when there are clothes to mend
How can I leave when the blooms dancing in the breeze
How can I leave you when we've reached the days of summer ease
How can I leave on a cloudless summer night
How can I leave at all when the time is never right.
I leave in the sunshines golden embrace
I leave you with the gentle touch of the wind upon your face
I leave you with the lake, lapping at the shore
I leave you with my pictures and memories galore
I can follow you through life, I can see every part
For I never really left you, I'm right there in your HEART
