''My Dear Wife''

What is a wife but part of me. Two made one by God you see. A breathless love A soothing calm A sweet savor A healing balm A care that knows no place to stop A drip of honey A constant drop A patience that has no end No matter how the road may bend A love so sweet no words can say For which no riches ever could pay Companion,lover,healer,friend A helper always to the end Though weaker sex supposed to be Always stronger it seems to me Advisor in times of trouble strong Forgiving when I do her wrong Words can never serve you see To describe the woman God gave to me But love for her that lives in me Will be for all eternity
