Rebecca

She is this new babe crying little flower abloom on the hill Oh be for we both worth trying oh be for my life this thrill

My wife Rebecca, light of my life!

She is the bright sun shining

melting on us butter and cream

Oh be our two hearts entwining

oh be for my hope this dream

___________________________

She is such the new babe crying

little flower abloom on the hill

Oh be for we both worth trying

oh be for my life this thrill

__________________________

She is the love without compare

beauty like a new born spring

Oh be of our eye's sweet stare

oh be for my love everything

Author's Note

The air is sweeter, the night is cooler. Life springs forth anew. Such is my life since meeting Rebecca. I remember thinking to myself, what does she see in me? I am prone to times when I am depressed. I wondered till recently how Becky would react in those dark days. Thankfully she is a dream come true. She took my hand, calmed the seas of doubt and led me to the light!
"God grant me this one extravagance. May she and I dance to this tune till the end of time"!!

Seems as if you could write a hundred books of your love for her, and it would only be the beginning.... Beautifully confessed and filled with that sense of sunshine summer days, even when when winter comes. You are blessed to have her in your life... and she is blessed to have you.

I don't think there is a poem I hate that you've written.

Wonderful tribute to your beautiful wife... guess all of us writers have black moods and funny thoughts when we are composing...especially when looking for the right sounding lines...my honey just ignores my moods and goes fishing..lol and God bless..Valentine

Right on my brother... Sounds like you and I lead similar paths, you are blessed, I am blessed and our poor wives have to suffer through loving a poet. I know I feel bad for my poor wife, he puts up with a ton from me.
