I Found
In your face I found beauty
by turn of mouth, orb of eye
by tint of skin, by all things good
brought to form for God's delight.
In your smile I found joy
full of cheer of the youth
or the glee of the senior bent
in every age bliss retrieved.
In your humor I did laugh
so often at myself
with kind wit we reviewed
jocularity shared by two.
In your presence I was moved
with the trials you sustained
on your path to this place
sharing where you used to be.
In your pain I was grieved
the angels cried as did I
you survived in the end
misery topped by bravery.
In your humanity I found myself
now remembered in your gaze
mirror to who I could be
could I return this fave?
