Will You Be My Valentine, Will Ya!
Cautiously tentative in our initial encounters,
Evolving quickly, once the commitment lights went on!
Resulting in present-day’s deep and enduring love potion.
With openness to learn and grow,
Ever refining the process in which two people navigate,
Each with very different ‘operational styles’.
We’ve reached an important juncture in this, the autumn of our lives,
Offering time to cherish the love we share,
Knowing our health and well-being is thereby infused,
Leaving residue for family and friends to glean as well.
Happy Valentine’s Day 2012, Sandra!!!!!
Your endearing Hubby Nate
Yes, I will be Your Valentine, Yes!
When the spring buds open on the azaleas
And the rains bring humidity and warmth
Yes! I will be your valentine!
When the summer vegetables are planted
And the squash bugs and caterpillars feast on them
Yes! I will be your valentine!
When the fall winds blow the leaves off the oaks and maples
And we hurry to cover the water faucets
Yes! I will be your valentine!
When our grandchildren look into our eyes
With awe and expectation
Yes! I will be your valentine!
When our hair is white and thin
And our bodies struggle to keep up with our spirits
Yes! I will be your valentine!
As we walk down that unknown trail
Of physical indifference and spiritual perfection
Yes! I will still be your valentine!
Your ever-lovin' wife,
Sandra
