My Wife

I love your eyes of many colours.

The way you gaze when deep in thought.

The way you care when I am ill.

Your undying support for all I do.

You don’t care about money, whether we have it or not.

You don’t care about status, the have and have-nots.

You’ve no time for those out for themselves.

Who give no thought for anyone else.

Your heart is an open book and big as can be.

Always time to forgive and care for those in need.

The patience of Job for those most unfortunate.

A more caring person you never will meet.

You offer a thought for my well-being.

Whatever it takes cos you know me so well.

A walk in the park or a trip in the car.

Or even a night out and a drink at the bar.

You’re intelligent and bright, a brain I can count on.

Much better than mine, I'll freely admit.

A voice of reason when I need some guidance to rely on.

Someone to look to when deep in the pit.

After all these years your love has never diminished.

Stands the test of time and much longer I bet.

I made the right choice when I was much younger.

To care and protect—for better or for worse.

Suffice to say there is no one like you.

There could never be a greater compatibility.

I wouldn’t change one thing even if I had the chance.

I thank my blessings you're with me to live life’s dance.
