It has been 3 yrs. -3 months since my wife passed away. During our time together she had asked me to writer a poem to her, about her,, Regrettably, I was never able to,,, until now. We had 15 wonderful together.
Many of you, like myself have known the loss of a Loved one so I know you'll understand the words,,, grab your tissues for this one.

Silent Tears

Shed in darkness
No one hears
The deafening sound
Of silent tears

In darkness, long and deep
A broken heart at my feet
Shattered dreams upon the floor
Of a Love that is no more

Memories of long ago
Like the tides
They ebb and flow

A love so pure and deep
Now it's gone
And I weep

Shed in darkness
No one hears
The deafening sound
Of silent tears

We've added the sheet metal to outside. It's coming along nicely. Still lots of work left to do though. The Boss has decided not to paint the camo pattern,, for now but he may change his mind at the last moment.
Stay tuned,, more update will follow.

I've been in the construction field for 36 . Had many Employers, some I liked,, some,, well, I won't go there.
In all those I can honestly say that I've NEVER had the relationship with ANY employer like I have with my present one.
He's more than just my Employer,, He's my Friend and I'm Grateful for it. I have earned his Resect and he mine.
Last week, he gave my Christmas Bonus,, Today he presented with the following photo.
It's a Plasma Cutter. It's like an oxyacetylene torch but way more efficient and economical as it requires no acetylene, only an air compressor and an electrical currant.
You may have seen or may even have one in your home,, those metal silhouettes,, those were cut out using a plasma cutter.
Can't wait to start using it.....
