She Would Be Wonderful

O' Jehovah
if I may have the honor,
let her be as beautiful
as petals of a flower.
Let her be as humble
as a beloved servant.
Let her be as joyful,
quiet and modest.
May she be as spiritual-
Just as you desire.

Teach me how to love her so deeply
she'll never wonder for how long.
Deeper than the deepest oceans.
So deep that words are not required.
No, just a glance that spells "Forever".

To be certain,
I'll utter this
Just loud enough to be heard,
"I love you very much."
