Throughout our lives, we’ve walked many roads, Lived in many places, in many abodes. The one thing consistent all through my life, Is my cherished, precious, and loving wife. Always so thoughtful and trying to please, Loving and caring, she puts me at ease. She shares of her wisdom, thoughtful insight, Many complexities she brings to light. Though written most often, seldom spoke out, But when she does speak, her words carry clout. When she does speak, in her own gifted way, Others go silent to hear what she’ll say. It’s not so different, as most thought they knew, The depth and uniqueness bring a new view. At times the obvious is overlooked. Her pearls of wisdom will soon have you hooked. I think it’s her mind, that most intrigues me, I think of wonders she seems to see. I’ll just practice patience, wait a brief while, She always says something filled with her smile.

Good Morning Bill. Hi. What a grand way to start the day seeing an entry of love devotion and more. This is beautiful and I'm certain Sara treasures and cherishes it and you as well. May there be love for one and all. Blessings and Peace to you both now and always. Have a beautiful morning and weekend too. (smile)

Dear Bill, your writing is truly exceptional and remarkable. The way you paint vivid pictures with your words and convey the essence of the moment is truly captivating. This tribute to Sara is beyond compare, I have never witnessed such a beautiful expression of love in my entire life. Your mastery of poetry is truly awe-inspiring. The emotions you convey are magnificent and it is evident that your spirit soars through every line. Love permeates every word. I wish you and Sara eternal happiness.
