We've stood on mountains high Shared each others laughter And the pain each other'd cry We've fought many battles We've over came them all We've stood up together And together we'd fall We've traveled down life's road With all its twists and turns Not always listening To each others concerns You've reached out and touched me And you've made me feel whole With tenderness and caring You've touched deep in my soul What e're roads we travel Or what twists life might take I'm glad you're my partner You're my hearts keepsake God brought us together As two partners for life For us to grow stronger As a man and his wife I would've picked no other To walk with by my side You are my confidant My light, my loving guide I love you! |

So sweet and heartfelt, this is wonderful. Makes me wish I had someone to call my own I am not a poet, I am merely one who speaks in emotion |

Trevor thanks! I appreciate that! One day you will find someone you love also! Not to easy, lots of ups and downs! But rewarding nontheless! Michael thanks! A long time coming that's for sure! It's wonderful I tell ya! ROFL @ you Tori! Actually he asked for a frame so he can hang it in his office. But hey, I have plenty hanging around here! hehe Just in case! LOL Love ya girl! Thanks!!!!! Devina how sweet! Thanks, I'll let him know. haha Marge thanks! Actually that's kind of why I wanted to write something for him. He has never had a poem from me, just to darn hard for me to come out with the words I want to say. I still didn't but this will have to do! He said he likes it, and thanked me and all. Serenity, I do want what I have. I thank God for what I have! Thank you! |

I can imagine this as handwritten wedding vows on the back of shopping receipts. But then, I've always had an "interesting" imagination. Thanks for sharing. Mike |

Of a love you speak so true and clear such lovely poem you've written dear I find your poem to such divine I would like to use it for my Valentine Very beautiful The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

WOW! What a surprise to see this round again! Thanks Lucky! Can't say that I have, but I thought we'd have a new page a while back. Rosemary thanks so very much! It's an honor if someone likes it enough to read it more than once |
