A Sonnet To My Wife

A SONNET TO MY WIFE Do you ever wonder why I do The little things I do for you It's because I love you, with a love that's true A love no other can give to you It's to keep a smile upon your face And assure you no one can take your place I love the way you wear your hair The way you hold me whenever I'm there I love the way you kiss my lips The tender touch of your fingertips So just remember, as you face each day My love for you will always stay Pure, unceasing – love without end You're more than a lover – you're my best friend 4 December 2019 For the contest, Love Me Like You Mean It, sponsored by Julie Leigh Rodeheaver

Thank you Rachael, and welcome as well. I believe this is your first visit to my work. I appreciate your comment and support. Ironically, my wife and I had previous marriages and we both have daughters named Rachel. Thanks again for your comment, and Merry Christmas!
