It's our 8 year wedding Anniversary tomorrow so I wrote this as a gift to my amazing husband Steve 

On a crisp winter gust of wind he blew in. 
Rousing me to wakefulness as he gently touched my skin

Just out of the blue
As if he knew
My existence had grown dim 
And I needed him

And now at last I could see
The face to the angel of my fantasies

He rescued me

Just like a dream
I never believed would be

Released from hurtful negativity 

He set me free

It was like looking into a mirror
I saw his soul of shimmer
A duplicate of mine
Destined to be combined

A placid giant in my eyes
He was the best of the human race
Secure in his arms of protection
I was greatly adored and with that safe

With a patient understanding
Simply kind and not demanding
Bringing out the best in me
Inspiring words of poetry

He whipped up a storm of passion in my heart
And with tenderness completed me
For he was my missing part
