Written for my husband Rob, the love of my life.

You are the true love of my life
I am so blessed to be your wife
Our love story is true
And started the day I met you

Marriage is not always pure bliss
But ours started after the first kiss
We were inseparable from day one
When our journey had just begun

We share many common likes and desires
But also, many differences still transpire
You’re a night owl and I prefer to get up early
And you sleep soundly, and I sleep poorly

We love to take long drives and try to find treasures
In antiquing, nature or enjoying culinary pleasures
I like to walk and exercise most every day
While you continue to avoid it in every way

I like things to be neat and in order
While you’re a pack rat and a slight hoarder
I like to read, write poems and create
While you like to fix, build and renovate

You like Harry Potter and I like anything mystery
I like current stories, and you prefer history
We both enjoy the local news and Netflix series
And enjoy haunted stories and with all the queries

I knew I found in you my soulmate and best friend
And blessed to have you in my life until the very end

Enjoyed reading your true love story. When I read it, I felt we have many things in common. I feel I am blessed to have my husband as my soul mate. We complete forty seven years tomorrow.... 11th Feb. But differences abound between us. Like you, I too have poor sleep while he, like your husband falls into sound sleep on touching the bed. I wish to keep my house in perfect order, but he is not at all particular about such things. Still we both make such lovesome companions. I greatly enjoyed your poem.... dear Tania.
