My Valentine

Who’s the one who comforts me
When life doth take it’s toll
Who is the one who holds me tight
And makes my spirit whole

Who’s the one who gifts her smile
And blesses me every day
Who knows my every weakness
and loves me anyway

Who’s the one who’s alway there
through every season of our life
Who is by far God’s greatest gift
Whom I’m blessed to call my wife

Who’s my best friend and Confidant 
My lover throughout the years
The keeper of our laughter
Who’s also generous with her tears

The answer is my Valentine
With whom no one can compare
The centre of my universe
My Sweetie oh so rare


Happy Valentines 2021 my Love.
