The Provider

When autumn chilled the maple
And turned the ginko leaves to gold
Strolling by creek water ripples
I my love to hubby told

The provider who's not gifted
At tender loving charms
Wrapped his arms around me
In gratitude that was warm

Once he picked me wild flowers
A bucket full I'd say
Just to show his appreciation
For loving him always

He should love this beautiful tribute, of which shows no little affection! This brings tears to one who is attuned to own heart! Sincerely Moses
