15 year Anniversary Poem

Happy 15 year Anniversary Lovey!  

The card Lovey gave me today.  It looks like us!

You are my love.
EL-OH-VEE-EEE
your smile, your touch
our fingers entwined.
Going through life
side by side.

In sickness
and in health
we stay together.
Two souls 
on a high wire
now and forever!

Moments after moments
so many
“have a good day”s.
A kiss before
we close our eyes,
that is our way.

You are my love
EL-OH-VEE-EEE
dancing, thrifting,
singing together
living our story
you and me.

The woman crosses over the city limits  trying not to be overcome with the heaviness  that she will never return. She deeply inhales the new air,  turns up the old car’s radio  and tosses h...

Love from the inside is hearts, butterflies, fingers entwined bodies side by side through good and bad colds, headaches... I can breathe again! Love is standards... family get togethers, Sunday morning laziness, discussions over food, giggles in bed, "we are out of toilet paper, get some please." Love is figurative... humble pie, simmering spices, and whipped cream on top! Love is pins and needles, walking on eggshells, a balancing act... Two humans on a high wire attention to the center of the ring! A plunge into the net! Someone there to help you back to solid ground and cheers as you raise your hands in glory. Take a bow together, Teamwork! Victories and losses silence...laughter...strong words and much patience. Have a good day.  Tell me what's wrong! The complaint department is open, it...
