For I know thou art very tired. For as a woman, never is thy work done.
I will read to thee From The Bible.
Whatever you want to be read to thee.
And it will be as though you were a little child once again.
Long before the wight of this old world fell upon your shoulders.
Yet thy perseverance prevented it from crushing thee.
As did mine, truth be told, as did mine.
I will read until I see your yawning. Then I will see thy eyelids and thou
retirest to thy slumber. And I will kiss your eyelids, your cheeks then your
lips. And if it is your wish, I will stay up all night holding you so tight, yet
with equal gentleness.
Upon my shoulders mayest thou rest thy weary head.
And if Mr. Bad Dreams comes along to disturb you, I will chase him away. And I
will reassure you that he wont come back again. I'll be in the kitchen at 430 in
the morning. Whatever you want for breakfast, I'll fix, and bring it to you in
bed and poon fed thee, if thou wisheth.
The house may not be spotless when you come in, but I assure you, 'twill be
socialby presentable. For unto me thou art heaven' Gift and Grace. Praise Jesus
for thee. And Happy Resurrectoin Day, My Lord, King, and Master.

This is a beautiful love story with all the ingredients for a happy marriage under God's
rules. Were these your marriage vows? Joyce

Well done. I think it would read and flow a lot more nicely if it was broken into shorter lines though.

lord make me weak,

This is a great reminder to me, as a male, that I should hang on the refrigerator.... But, I can't let my wife see this. Because, I feel that, most certainly, I would fail these wonderful expectations of me. God help us all.
