You Are

You are the air that I breathe You are the warmth that I need You are my shelter from the storm You are my strength when I am worn You are the place I call home No matter where I roam You will see me through In no matter what I do You are the love of my life I am so happy to be your wife You are my heart and soul You are all that I know Baby, we were meant to be Baby don't you see Within you within me Here lies our destiny

BAM!!!you hit the nail on the head with this piece! the rhyming was terrific and the message was great. but Don't be there when he reads it. it's better to think of a guy tearing up than to see one in person. great job. yours John Henry Loving III

How wonderful to have a love who fulfills all of your needs -- someone upon whom you can count whenever you need "shelter from the storm" of life. Beautifully penned, Phyllis! Love, Carolyn
