Eternity
Kneeling together
To never part;
Clasping hands,
Binding hearts.
Across the altar
I get a view,
A tiny glimpse of
Forever with you.
The experience behind this poem is too personal and sacred for me to share. However, it causes me to reflect often on the beautiful summer morning when, in the LDS Seattle Temple , I knelt across the altar from my “very soon to be” husband to be married for time and all eternity. Behind each of us was a large mirror which, when we faced each other, created reflections within reflections of the two of us together. It seemed to have no end and symbolized the eternal union of the two of us on that day…and forever. What incredible blessings await us in Heaven; how wonderful to know I will share them with him, who I learn to love and cherish more and more with each passing day.
