The Tub of Love

This tub is filled with different words that float in my life Most are still here because of my sweet loving wife She takes such good care of me every single day That is the reason these words never float away Without her I would flow right down the drain And all that would do is cause more pain So I keep it filled that's my usual plan Also jump into it whenever I can Always bathing myself in love Hoping that she will never P the P U L L U L G

I have a feeling she's a long suffering soul whose life is never dull. Can it be true? That's quite a tub you built there, hope the legs don't give out!
