Your Champion ~First Knight~ Let me be your Champion, The one that fights for you. Your one and only spirit, Your Champion through and through. I’ll gladly stand before you, To hold the world at bay. There’s nothing I would not do, Nothing I would not say. I’ll slay the dragon called “Lonely”. I’ll carry all your weight. I’ll lift the burden of worry. I’m sure you’ll see the fate. Let me be your Champion, There is no cause to small. I would swim any ocean. Or climb any wall. Let me fly your colors. To battle I would ride. To fight for your honor With respect as my guide. Love, honor, and cherish. Things to give a wife. Give me please this duty To be Champion of your life. A man does not love a woman because she is beautiful...But she is beautiful because he loves her. |

Your name certainly fits your words here. I think you are a "First" Class "Knight" all the way. I really like your work - you certainly don't disappoint Lori ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens. Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance. And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance - I hope you dance. song by LeeAnn Womack ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |

wow! written to melt any woman's heart. "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace." Elizabeth Barrett Browning |

Ah David...I'd thought I had replied to this one, but I guess not. You don't have to be a champion, just be the sweet,caring person that you are and that should be more than enough for any woman |
