My Loving Richard
written 11/16/99

Blooming roses,
buds of glory
every petal
tells a story.

Does he love me
does he not?
He told me once,
but i forgot.

Petal by petal
gloats to the ground,
and as they land
they make no sound.

Last of the petals
is about to gall-
and as it lands I see it all.

He loves me tender,
he loves me true...
and now I know
what I need to do.

I'll tell him today
that I love him dear-
and make sure that
the message is clear.

My Loving Richard,
your love is sweet-
you make my life
feel so complete.

I'll be your friend,
I'll be your wife.
I'll be true to you
for the rest of my life.


Dedicated to my loving Richard on our 2 month
anniversary..
