I See You

Please my love, know I see you Even at those times When You think I don't see The times when I'm too tired to talk Sitting in front of the TV With the meal your lovely hands prepared for me I see you When I look in the mirror For I am a better man because of you More loving Considerate Patient Happy Your words have healed me Filled me with joy I see you When we are with our friends You fill our home with comfort Amazing smells You are the heart that beats within our walls The very best and sweetest part of us I see you My beautiful My darling wife You are my sustenance The very breath I breathe The oxygen that permeates my air I feel how much you care I'm lost if you're not here Even if I'm quiet I need you near I see you When I look at our son The man he has become Your voice spoken into him You were the best place for him to begin So my love Please know and understand This is the best life for me With you alone I long to be A broken heart that you set free Yes, yes, my special one, I see you!

He has been blessing it for 20 years this coming May. I met my wife in Mexico 21 years ago. She was from Vancouver ani was from Ontario. In three days I knew she was the one and four months later moved out west to be with her. Best decision of my life.

A very beautiful poem, Richard. What a touching and heartfelt tribute to your wife! Sometimes, there are no words to tell our loved ones how we really feel about them. And those few words usually go unspoken, yet, we can say it with poetry!

I make mistakes all the time Jancarl. The most important part is the gift you give imbedded within the words you have shared with us and that comes through loud and clear.
