Last year we had an awesome Valentines Day Contest. We didn’t have one this year, but people still submitted entries. Heres one from Steve Earp. Thanks! Glad you two got back together

Our Life

I remember that first night,

It was love at first sight

That’s just the way it happened to be,

Me for you, you for me,

Holding hands was against the rule,

In Vacation Bible School

Our love was off the charts,

No one had to tell our Hearts.

Through the years,

There were laughter and tears.

Waiting on an unmarked day,

Life just seemed to get in the way.

Through struggles and a fight,

We still held onto each other tight

Even though our lives were busier than the start

No one ever told our Hearts.

On Valentines night,

It snowed what a sight

We both knew we could not go on

With all that was going wrong

The time had come to separate, leave,

break up the couple known as Kim and Steve.

Then we waited on what God had for our lives apart,

but he knew our love, our Hearts.

A year had past

Since I saw you last

I just came home from visiting kin

you called me up like a long lost friend.

You asked me why I left your life in haste.

I told you remember you said, “You needed some space”

We laughed and talked that night

I asked you out, you said all right.

Months later on our wedding day, noone could tell we had been apart,

There was no time lost between our Hearts

Now the months have turned to years

God has taken away all our tears.

We’ve raised our two girls in a Godly home

Soon we’ll be back on our own

But we’ve never been apart even from the start

Because we’ve always been joined at the Heart.

Now don’t be sad but be glad

I’m blessed for all the time I had

to love you,

My Bride.
