a beautiful song done acoustically by Janis Ian, from the album "The Essential Janis Ian". The pictures are a tribute to my other half, Bob. I lost Bob to a sudden heart attack without warning in August of 1995. We were married 3 months shy of our 22nd anniversary. The last picture was taken exactly one month before Bob died, notice the heart made with his hands♥
'Days Like These' ~by Janis Ian
On days like these
when the rain won't fall
and the sky is so dry
that even birds can't call
I can feel your tears
disappearing in the air
Carried on the breeze
on days like these
It's years like these
that make a young man old
Bend his back against the promises
that life should hold
They can make him wise
They can drive him to his knees
Nothing comes for free
on days like these
But you can't reap what you don't sow
and you can't plant in fallow ground
so let us fill this empty earth with hope
until the rains come down
In lives like these
where every moment counts
I add up all the things
that i can live without
When the one thing left
is the blessing of my dreams
I can make my peace
with days like these
I can make my peace
with days like these

@PrivateTrain Thank you... the song is beautiful, Janis Ian is such a pure talent. My husband was a loving and tender soul who always made sure I knew that I was loved above all else.

@hopefulhopelessR awww, thank you. I was so blessed with Bob, if it all had to end exactly the same way, I would do it all over again and wouldn't change a moment of it all :)

He was as lucky as you were, or maybe even more. You have an incredibly beautiful soul, Auntie.
