Our Endless Love

Posted by Nancy Lou Henderson in Poetry | 2 comments

Our Endless Love My heart beats strong, although shattered and broken, my love for you will forever be spoken. Our love for each other was a gift from above, God planned our hearts to share endless love. Living without you brings so much emotion, although you surround me with your love and devotion. Heaven awaits me, where we will meet again, to share an eternal love that will never end. My eyes are dry, and I must not weep. I am strong, but I am weak. Visits:...

I Love You, Nancy

I Love You, Nancy Nancy, In my bunk at night, I lay, just counting the hours in a day. For soon it will be all over, then nothing but blue skies and green clover. All the long lonely nights of the past will end when we are together at last. I think of you and how your beautiful eyes shine when I look at you and lay it all on the line. My love is for only you, and it’s nice. I wouldn’t change that love for any price. Our love is so wonderful and fulfilling, and will always be, God willing. He has given us something that is beyond compare. He has given us something that only we...

After being married to my soulmate, Frank, for twenty-nine years, on January 30, 1997, I suddenly became a widow.

Two weeks after selling the Florist, I was contacted...

A Priceless Letter

When I checked the mail on Monday, March 25, 2019, I had received an extraordinary piece of mail. After opening the envelope and reading a message written in cursive writing inside the card, it moved me to tears. Many years ago, probably sixty-one years to be exact, I attended elementary school in Levelland, Texas. My second-grade teacher’s name was Mrs. Chaffin. Of course, I had not thought about second-grade for many years. A few weeks back my Mom called me to tell me that she needed some more of my books. She informed me that Mrs. Chaffin had seen my book lying on a table in the...

Audio Excerpt from Love & Marriage: The Love Story of Nancy & Frank. I thought it might be fun and exciting to try to and record a chapter of my first book with me as the reader. I randomly chose a chapter, which was Chapter 40 in Love and Marriage, named Broken Hearts. Frank was leaving for Vietnam after we had been home for a very short while from our assignment in Okinawa The writing of a personal Memoir involves all of your senses. You are immediately transported back to that moment in time of your life. Emotions run rampant as you write about real-life experiences. I knew this,...
