Poetry

---

In my time on this earth there are things I never realized,

just fanciful dreams a young man idealized.

But the older I get I have come to a realization of you,

Not in how you look but the things you do.

But what is it about you that makes me love you?

It's your gracious smile that makes all things new.

Your self sacrificing heart of putting others first,

the bountiful love you have dispersed.

Thinking of the family I have through you,

Their little eyes glowing sky blue.

Seeing how you unwaveringly love them,

Your eyes sparkle back like a gem.

For the love you give to our children two,

Is reflected back in my eyes to you.
