Portrait of Love

Darling, I am so proud to wake up every morning as husband and wife. Without you, my palette would be colorless and I’d live a grueling life. Your love pleasingly brightens my heart on each and every passing day. You are my sanctuary. My safety. All my fears just seem to drift away. You are the true masterpiece. Di Vinci cannot hold a brush stroke to you. Everyone agrees with me. I now know what I utter is the absolute truth. My love, when you were creatively sculpted, God had bent a few rules. When it comes to perfection. Picasso’s a novice. Michelangelo is a fool. Sweetheart I’d affectionately hang you on a wall for all to admire and see. They would witness a perfect husband who is in love with only lil’ ole me. My dear, I believe you were sent to me from the mystical heavens above. If I was to put a brush to canvas, I’d paint you each and every time. Calling my masterpiece the portrait of love.
