           One Perfect Day

One perfect day, I came to know
The meaning of true bliss,
While drinking fresh-brewed coffee
That was sweetened by your kiss.
Outside, the air was wintry cold,
But I was snug and warm:
The radiant warmth of summertime
I felt, within your arms.

One perfect day, I felt the touch
Of something sweet and rare,
As, with my gentle, loving hands,
I washed your silken hair.
And, as I gazed upon your face,
So happy and so calm,
I marveled at the beauty
That I held within my palm.

One perfect day, I caught a glimpse
Of Heaven, up above,
While walking hand in hand with you -
The woman that I love.
The sweet sensation of your touch
Drove all my cares away,
And filled me with tranquility
Upon that perfect day.

Elizabeth - why, thank you!  Is that rose for me?  LOL!  I'm just kidding, but it IS a little-known fact that many of us men like flowers.  

Nan - (Blushing) Thanks, but I am the lucky one - she's an Angel, through and through!  

Nate Dogg - Thanks so much!
