Faithful

Nice roses or chocolates I seldom see from the man who long ago married me. But I cannot complain, and that’s because the way he is today he always was! He offered me a life to share with him. And we’re still standing though some times were grim. I’ve never caught my husband making eyes at other gals. He’s not one of those guys! He’s kind of shy, but he can get quite loud if someone’s trashing me. That’s not allowed. Hard-working and dependable is he. But he is faithful, most importantly. Written 4/21/2016 For the Loyalty Contest of Broken Wings Using rhyming couplets.
