 " The Path Of True Love Never Runs Smooth "

.........................................................................

 

Since the day I fell in love with you

Sheer contentment has flowed unabated

Like a rushing river in full spate

Fruitfulness and mellowness are the gifts you bring

You are always there to see to my every care

I am in rapture, as you run your fingers through my hair

And ease my aching heart, when life gets too hard to bear

I love you because you understand me

In every single way or thing I do

You stand by me through thick and thin

Even when I err, you build me back up again

Retrieve the situation with a loving word

Kiss and cuddle me when I am feeling down

Lift my spirits up when the going gets tough

Believe in me in everything I attempt

I adore how you are the perfect mother to our sons

Making sure they feel loved and wanted

I could not want for more than this

For I realise I've been given the bounty of heaven

Two hearts enjoined in glorious and undivided union

Thats stood the test of time and fate

I stretch back and consider this great design

And neither see or understand it all

So I give thanks and pray every day

To he that sets the moon and stars in the night sky

Master thank you from the bottom of my heart

All glory is thine from the break of day

As my pen runs dry in the evening, in awe of him

A beautiful testament to love. Peter, you deserve every lasting bit of happiness. You're just the kind of soft character that demands the utmost respect and your wife is very lucky to have you, as are your sons. Happiness to you always, Peter.

A more perfect Valentine there could not be, Peter. Print it, frame it and wrap it as a gift to your sweetheart. It's a lot better than flowers or chocolate.

Love & Light,
Joseph

Now that is MY kinda tribute and memorial, Peter... if you could just arrange to have it raised up about fifty feet into the sky and my initials placed within it, it would be the perfect Valentine!! :)) Asking too much?? Not of true love, surely?? Well, the old heart-pumping feel-good is certainly coursing through your pen today, and 4 days' ahead of schedule, too... bet YOU were/are never late for a date!? Your attitude of wonder and gratitude are melting. TY and Bless you, LOL Kate xx
