Renewed


Marked the day . . .

        Met her, and my heart beat crazy Love

Thirty-two years ago . . .

And still I can’t be without her,
still love her with crazy beats,
shallow breaths,
heat flooding my soul.

Marked the day . . .

        Today my love renewed

As it has been – everyday,
for thirty-two years and counting –
On tomorrow,
so I can say it again, and again . . . and again.

Met her this morning, and my heart beat crazy Love . . .

And still I can’t be without her,
still love her with crazy beats,
shallow breaths,
heat flooding my soul.

Marked the day . . .

She married me.

Love your crazy love! Bonne Anniversaire!
Happy Anniversary!

May the passion, joy, and mutual adoration continue forevermore!

I know that receiving a love poem like this would  certainly add fuel to my marital fires ~ if I was still married! lol

You are a very sweet man ~ and poet!

I am so glad that your heart still beats 'crazy love' for her - and I love this poem lots and lots.

I know she does too.

Jwesley,

You did nice work on this poem, and good on you both.

Don't capitalize "On" in "on tomorrow"
