I wrote this for my husband when he turned 72. He liked it,but said: "I have not done enough for you..." He never understood why I felt it was an honor to be his friend and wife.


Poem Artwork

I don't claim to understand
All that makes a man a man
But loving you came easy,but loving you came easy
You made my dreams come true

In the wisdom of your words
I heard my father
In your zest for life
I saw my brother
In your acceptance of my faults
I saw my mother

You made me happy
You brought sunshine to my life
You made me happy
You brought sunshine to my life
I see it in our children's eyes
In their youthful confidence
I see your smile
I see your stance
In their youthful confidence
I see your love
I feel your strength

We had a ordinary life
A mother,a soldiers bride
You filled my heart  with pride
You filled our home with pride

And the years wee been apart
With an ache in my heart
I'd let you go,I'd let you go

Other soldier's wives still know
The pain of letting go
They let them go
For love, country and  pride
They let them go
For love, honor and pride
This I know;this I know
I've been a soldiers wife
I've been a soldiers wife

I don't claim to understand
All that makes a man a man
But loving you, came easy
I had to love you
From the first day I met you
I had to love you
You made my dreams come true ...
I had to love you
Loving you came easy

Loving you came easy...
