I Celebrate You

To a love that will never die,
a love to be desired always, 
my friendly lover and 
my most loveliest friend,
my darling dear. 
I celebrate you 
and all that you are today. 
You are a beautiful soul.
The best gift life can 
ever give to me.
There's nothing I want more,
than to be with someone like you. 
Spending my life time 
with you is my desire 
for you are my world. 
Because of you,
heaven is within reach. 
Your heart is where 
the angels gathers,
for bliss is there. 
Your smile is sunshine 
to my world,
it revives and gives new life 
and meaning to my being. 
Your touch heals even 
the most painful hurts, 
the hardness of heart 
your love softened, 
and the pain melts away. 
Pleasurable are your words.
You are impossible to resist. 
Immaculately beautiful, 
with exquisite behavior, 
you have an instinct for the 
right and wrong things to say. 
Never heard you make a faux pas.
Your care nurtures the 
weak and afflicted back to life. 
You are a virtuous woman,
not tired of the pesky ways 
of people around you,
you endured their unruly manners, 
with your generosity and kindness
you win the hearts of the irascible ones. 
You made the best of each moment. 
Everything and all the dirty chores 
seems so easy to handle.
Because you are here,
your presence is comforting. 
Thank you for letting me win your heart, 
I'm so grateful for all that you are.
