I Remember Poem by Wakefield Mahon

Snow is falling and turning to rain
Just like it did one June wedding day
Reminding me, still, as it did back then
Of my deepest love and my oldest friend
And I remember

I think of the scarves adorning your neck
That sweet milky nape I will not forget
Eyes that I knew I would see all my life
Though somehow I hoped they'd belong to my wife
Still, I remember

I remember every time we danced
Holding you whenever I had the chance
Sharing your hopes, your dreams and your fears
When you found, in my shoulder, a place for your tears
Yes, I remember

And if, today, you gave me your heart
And promised we never again will part
Or if you see fit to cast me away
And I never see you after this day
I will remember
