  • I Think of You

    I Think of You

    The afternoon is cool and gray…yet I think of you.
    I should be working through the day…yet I think of you.

    Problems piled upon my desk…yet I think of you.
    I solve them and put them to rest…yet I think of you.

    Five hundred emails call my name…yet I think of you.
    People selling products all the same…yet I think of you.

    Proposals sent to me in haste…yet I think of you.
    None so interesting as your taste…yet I think of you.

    Your warm strong arms that hold me close…make me think of you.
    My dreams are filled with you the most…I always think of you.

    I wrote this poem about my spouse and how after 15 years of marriage, I still think of him. My heart longs for him. As the day drags on in the boredom of mundane work fills my hours…I still think of him. I can’t wait til the end of the day when I curl up on his chest, and the world outside fades away as his kiss transports me into our own world of passion. Together.

  • I Love Thee

    I Love Thee

    I love thee in many ways, how shall I count them now?
    I love the way you smile at me, with joy upon your brow.

    I love that you are generous, even when I’m being a hag.
    I love that you still grope me, even though my breasts have begun to sag.

    I love that you treat me kindly, even when I’m feeling blue.
    I love that you overlook the way, my waist has gotten huge.

    I love that you are dependable, and you believe in the greater good.
    I love that you stand for what is right, when no one else would have stood.

    I love that you rarely cry, and that you hardly sit and brood.
    I love that your sense of humor, is often pretty rude.

    I love the sarcasm in your soul, it finds kinship with me.
    I love you love adventure, and new things we get to see.

    I love that you like my mind, and find passion in my thoughts.
    I love that you calm me down, when my stomach is tied in knots.

    I love the way you kiss my lips, and show me that you care.
    I love when you touch me, it’s like an answered prayer.

    I love thee in so many ways, I couldn’t name them all.
    I love thee so very much, in my heart you’re ten feet tall.

    I wrote this as a touching ode to unconditional love and devotion. I love my husband so much. I am celebrating the beauty my spouse sees in me, even after all the years together. I still love his quirks, resilience, and his unwavering support. I admire my spouse deeply and I don’t know how to express that to him.
