FOR MY WIFE

*** * ***
When I say so, you act like I’ve flipped,
as if in my dottage I have lost
my tenuous hold on reality, free
falling into the abyss of dementia:
But I still find you beautiful, and desirable
and sexy after all the struggles of 3 kids,
after the turmoil of 30 years of marriage:
the moves, the failures, the estrangements,
the coming back together, the loss of
communication, and its renewal, the unshared
experiences, the crises and the joy the growth.
After all that I still love you as passionately
as a young man but as patiently tenderly
as only a lover of long tenure can love.

Aww this is so sweet
Not many people even last
that long together anymore
Hope she reads this, it's a
beautiful expression of your
love to her.
Great write.

Your wife is a lucky lady. The heart of a poet always reveals his true feeling even when he cannot say them directly. My husband is also a poet and through that I know he loves me even when he can't say it. Your wife always knows how you feel even when you don't say it. |
