Love of My Life 2

(Dedication: For Ann, my darling.)

---------------------------------------


A blessing within that spreads a fond glow;
Now just as before the journey we walk;
New wonders unseen in feelings that show;
Appeal firms galore in kindness that talks.
Love is the reason for health made ample;
Indulge sure passion in feelings that sing;
Free as the seasons that shape the humble;
Embrace true action in warm touching flings.
Live each swirling chime with spontaneous urge;
Opt to be feisty in moments that spice;
Voice grandeur in time as rhymes prime each surge;
Endear the cheery as echoes fund prize.
Love and life sparkle in days that mellow;
Your calm ways dazzle in nights that follow.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ann of my dear days and my constant delight;
Now we live passion that rise and fall here;
New range of light rays to greet our fond sights;
Apply deep notions as intent springs clear.
Love funds a new dawn with feelings that light;
Open hearts endow the touch of fond joy;
Voices of bright morn hurl hints of insight;
Exploits sojourn now beyond words or ploys.
Life is a story that comes forth to tell;
Imprints of soul scripts that fate deigns to art;
Vouch for grand plenty that springs where we dwell;
Enlighten each trip with lovely pure hearts.
Look time and space strange in change that awakes;
Yield wonder in face, in authentic takes.

Dear Monterey: Yes I am blessed to have a wife who is my best friend in all the world. We have been together since college in 1972 for an amazing 42 years. What a journey. Thank God. Leon
