That splendid woman who,
one step at a time,
left her world behind,
and chose to love, live,
laugh, weep, or in summary,
keep me company,
and tie her dreams to mine.
That outstanding woman who,
became my soulmate,
and has not allowed our love,
to scatter in the wind.
That awesome woman who,
continues to share with me,
life’s great, and not so great moments,
and refuses our dreams to fall apart,
against all odds.
That inspiring woman who,
builds our dreams back up again,
so that we can rise above it all,
and climb higher together,
one step at a time.
That magnificent woman who,
stands tall by my side,
in this crazy world.
With that woman:
we’ve shared each other’s dreams,
we’ve helped each other grow,
we’ve watched miracles unfold,
we’ve embraced each other’s differences,
and we’ve found each other’s strength.
With that woman,
we’ve been each other’s light
in times of sadness;
and we’ve lifted each other up,
in times of joy.
With that woman:
our lives complete each other;
and our hearts beat as one.
And now to that woman:
you’ve been a magnificent spouse
and an outstanding mother.
I loved you young,
I love you now;
and I’ll love you then,
as we continue to live our dream,
of growing old together,
while remaining young at heart,
exactly like at that time when,
I chose to tie my dreams to yours.
