Passion For My Wife

A verse of love may come into my head
And rattle around for a while or so
Until I jot it down with ink or lead
And if it sounds okay then you I'll show

No man can call himself a poet though
If such rough lines and quips be all he write
And seldom shall such words produce a glow
As needed in your heart to win this fight

This ode is just one step along the trail
And so I pledge to dedicate my life
To put love first, and give my heart each day
For years to come, to you my lovely wife

Thus shall our love do more than just survive
True passions for each other will arrive

Fall

Once the leaves were green
But now are red yellow brown
As they die and fall
