You have sailed the ocean of life alone
And met every obstacle along the way
You have overcame all the odds
To make it where you are today

One thing remains and soon you will see
The joy of giving love to someone you need
You have been tested and God lent his hand
Removed bonds from your heart to love again

A heart so tender that it surpasses all goals
A love for mankind that you cherish and hold
Light along the path that others may find their way
Reasons for loving you, I can't walk away

Your boat may be small and the ocean so wide
But i would give my life to be by your side
To remove the shadows of fear from your heart
To protect you from harm, and be a small part

To recognize your tears when you cry in the rain
Always take pride in being your hero again and again
Never look for faults, only find the good in you
Until my last breath of life, i promise to you

Paul, your loving and generous heart is showing.

"To recognize your tears when you cry in the rain" ~ loved that line!!!

May your Valentine's Day be as sweet as you, yourself, are!


Linda
