Ernestine Miracle Man 10/23/2024 Dementia isn’t something my loved one has chosen, So I readily admit that in patience I’m lacking. It seems in a time zone a memory has been frozen, Repeating things daily is quite nerve racking. Things are lost daily, and sometimes never found. We no longer can agree on a myriad of matters. The smallest of things are the easiest to confound, I attempt to write as my...

Valentines Day, 2003 Ernestine By Tom Wright 2/03 You brought to my life, your wonderful smile, Working side by side, we've shared each mile. You've always been faithful, loving and giving.

An inner beauty that never fades, is what to others you display. Never diverse in degrees or grades, But unchanging throughout each day. Your inner thoughts a smile betrays, And heart oft dangles from your sleeve. You radiate rooms with luminous rays, While in quietness, in others, you believe. You weep & pray for others from concern Bestowing upon many without thought of self. Not...

Of all God's many blessings, The greatest would be my wife. She looked beyond my many faults, When agreeing to share my life. She's always been there at my side, Throughout our married life. God knew what He was doing, When choosing her for my wife. I've never liked to go or do, A rut's my comfort zone. She's sacrificed so much for me, In her,...

I the fisherman, you the Queen, we ate the candy in between, the lobby and the mezzanine, you took the time to read a book and taught the servant s how to cook though royalty n'er took a look. We squandered every single note of every song I ever wrote, and made a little fishing boat, to go out far upon the sea, with no...
