Dear Husband Mine

Dear husband mine, how can I show,
My love for you, I've come to know?

Your warm and tender, loving touch,
Still lingers after fingers brush;
As in the days of long ago,
Still sparks ignite my passions so.

Your laugh ... sweet music to my ears,
Can always ease my tender tears;
A voice that echoes through my heart,
Records the love that n'er shall part.

Your gentle eyes that sparkle so,
Light up my sight in after-glow;
One furtive glance across the room,
Can make this heart still sigh and swoon.

Your smile and silent, knowing glance,
Devour me, with sweet romance;
A love that lets my spirit soar,
Beyond the skies for evermore.

Though grains of sand may trickle time,
Our love is endless ... husband mine.

Kit,  This is a fine offering and a wonderful tribute.  Why isn't this a book submission?

Your warm and tender, loving touch,
Still lingers after fingers brush;

This is such a beautiful passage,
The whole poem is exquisite

Absolutely beautiful Kit.  I hope that in my future, I will have a wife as tender and compassionate as you seem to be.  You are an excellent writer and not a bad Moderator.  Keep it up.

Beautiful Kit! Such a wonderful love you share.

God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown
