For Erica
By Richard Wallace
I remember walking in the park
And I was so unsure
We were holding hands and we talked a bit
We had never done that before
I remember feeling awkward
I was afraid you would pull away
I didn’t know you liked me too
Not in a special way
*****
Days turned into months and years
The way they always do
We talked about our future
And things that we would do
We cared for one another
Our love would have its way
Our guiding star that never dimmed
Grew brighter every day
*****
Time would lead us as it does
We grew older every day
A job, a car, a house, our home
A family on the way
The kids will grow and we will too
We’ll watch them make their plans
You will always be my Valentine
And we will still hold hands
*****
