THE KEY TO MY HEART
The gold key to my heart is very special tp me,
Daily it reminds me of a love for all eternity,
Given to me by my beloved Brian years ago,
Our first wedding anniversary his love to show.
It still shines bright after all these many years,
Like our love through joy, heartache and fears,
It never dimmed or tarnished but will be ever true
Yet when I pass away with it what can I fairly do.
Everyone will want it our boys and girls alike I know,
If Brian is alive he may want it, continued love to show,
But at both our passing this simple request I now make,
Place it on rich velvet and then for six months each it take.
Hang it in each home so that eternal love will ever show,
Remembering the closeness had as though life we did go,
We have a deep love that will last for eternity through,
And one by one in years to come we’ll greet each of you.
Look at the key to my heart given in sweet young love,
Remember the promises made, work for heaven above,
And my key will keeping shining just like love divine,
Think of the two of us know I’ll feel his hand in mine.
