From the Mouth of a Babe That Now Knows

finding joy in what i take for granted
this does not happen everyday
it is through this woman's eyes that i see
so many things that this typical male missed like mad
this is why i have this specially made ice cream cake for you
it is not your BirthDay
it is nowhere near Christmas
it is not Mothers Day
it is not our anniversary (and yes, i ALWAYS remember)
it is just an Appreciation Day for you, to you, from me
i am now learning that everyday is a HolyDay Blessing with you
i grow even more exponentially in the each and every(THIS)day with you
i look forward to the forward motions of life
what i once viewed as corny as a young man, i now, as an older man see the essential vitamins within.....
finding joy in what i always took for granted.....YOU
