Riches

To my husband, who would be so surprised that I see him this way...

You have a horror of


     boredom, monotony,


     lack of excitement,


Responsibility ordinary to me.


You should be a big game hunter


                       Cruise ship captian


                      Playboy of the western world


So why did you wed


                     a Suzy homemaker


Who likes to read,


                    feed the birds,


                  hot glue things together,


                  and raise children?


I count myself blesse that you


              seek my company.


I would shower you with diamonds,


         Swiss bank accounts,


\            and small but exquisite tropical islands,


If I could obtain them.


            I may yet find a way...

there I something about the way you write that I find sentimental, yet not mushy. This is both touching and real to me. Thanks.
