Samenvatting:

The author of the poems in Words I Love, Volume 5: An Earthly/Heavenly Romance has discovered a truth that he can take comfort in for the rest of his days on Earth. He has discovered that, since his wife's death, there is something more that he can cling to besides merely reminiscing about their lovely life together before her passing. He has discovered that he is a temple in which his wife dwells for the rest of his earthly days. His wife lets him know that, far from being "dead and gone," she is, today, "alive and here." There is a blissful continuity experienced between them since that fateful day of her passing. Remember this, dear Earthly beau-- You're a temple, there, below. In all those Earthly things you do, I'm residing, dear, in you. (3. A Temple, verses 21-24)
