He doesn’t realize
What he does for me
My heart sings
It’s the little things
I just close my eyes
And I can see him vividly
So longingly
I wait patiently
For him
to do them again

Hah! Doesn't sound to me like you're waiting patiently, sounds to me like you are chomping at the bit. By the way, I'm in the process of getting down with that ice cream you forced me to go and buy.

this is really great, Lori...short and sweet and so genuine

There must be a poem in here somewhere.

The brevity of this write is one of the things that makes it so great.

Happy anticipation,

as long as you have balloons and ice cream cones, sand dollars and castles, and are able to see the sun in a storm, it'll always be so my friend . . . as usual, enjoyed your words.

Lovely poem and even lovelier to hear a REALLY happy, true story.  

I enjoyed your poem and the comments, and thought that Jimmy's reply was a beautiful prose-poem in itself.
