Notes About The Poem

An Extraordinary Blend

Your wit is as sharp as any knife,
for it never gets dull from neglect.
And an aura surrounds you in life,
your presence has a magic effect.

You share your wisdom with one and all,
a simple truth you dispense with pride.
And lift me up from a painful fall,
confidence evident in your stride.

You cultivate what is best in me,
as I feel a smile slowly begin. 
And you do your best to help me see,
sadness should never be locked within.

I feel so lucky to have found you,
you are an extraordinary blend.
And you do what no one else can do,
for you're both my lover and my friend.
