NORTH STAR

Fidelity:

The north star of the soul 

That 

Helps the heart navigate 

Over 

The turbulent waters of temptations 

And

Through the perilous reefs of lust  

Towards

The serene shores of happiness, 

But 

Often unobserved remains by the many,

For

It is hidden behind the clouds of    

Impetuous desires!

You are absolutely right my dear, Donna! It is the day to day life that makes the difference. So 23 years of happiness! I wish you thrice that number to reach. I am certain you will for the sky is clear!
