When I Say I Love My Husband

When I say "I love my husband" I'm not bragging of marriage success I'm silently saying we've been punned Yet he stood just to effloresce. When I say "I love my husband" I'm not shouting he's strong I'm whispering he has his weakness And praying for strength from God. When I say "I love my husband" I'm not trying to say he's perfect His flaws are all too visible But I believe he's worth my all. When I say "I love my husband" I'm not saying he doesn't hurt I have my share of heartache But he's not such a malapert. When I say "I love my husband" I'm not claiming I know him all I always submit to the unknown Asking humbly to be taught. When I say "I love my husband" I don't wish to gladden his heart Just saying no matter the tide I'll always be by his side. When I say "I love my husband" I'm saying that in my garden He's the only seed I've got From this flower called love. When I say "I love my husband" I speak not with human pride He's the reason for my glide I hope you understand why. It's been 365'/4 day already And I'm still loving you deeply I will celebrate this love daily For I know you love me too. Happy Anniversary. 31:05:2015.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
