Request fourteen
Years ago, shortly after
We were married.
A friend found it
In her old files and sent
It to me.
He requested prayer for
His family:
"Especially my beautiful
Child bride," and he continued,
"That Dorothy and I can
Maintain balanced lives
As we serve the Lord and
Each other."
He added a P.S. too.
"Love is too sweet for
Words,"
And Jack's sweet words,
Written in his familiar
Handwriting so long ago,
Were what I needed today.
Sue couldn't have known
That I would receive her
Letter on the sixth month
Anniversary of Jack's
Death.
But Jesus did.
