AFTER 47 YEARS
Because our love is eternal and is
growing every day,
There is always something new
and precious I can say,
Thoughts that dwell so lovingly in
my heart for you,
For you are my true inspiration, there
to see me through
All our trials and tribulations, as we share
the pain and joys of life,
I pray that I will always be to you
a tender loving wife.
My love would take your hurt away, each
heartache and pain,
But I will ever be standing by you, holding
hands till you are well again.
My admiration for you, my darling, grows
stronger day by day,
And I will always be with you along life’s
tumultuous ways.
May our love grow ever stronger and deep
understanding swell,
As we strive to serve our God so one day
together with Him dwell.
The words, ‘I love you,’ are insufficient my dear
to express my love,
May my loving poems be enough, until I find
better words in heaven above.
