For My Husband at Valentine's

 

 For My Husband at Valentine's

I looked through rows of greeting cards,

But none of them convey,

The overwhelming sentiments,

In my heart each day.

Each night before I fall asleep,

I look at you and see,

The man I chose so long ago,

Who still means the world to me.

Of course, we have our ups and downs,

And we may even have a fight,

But I always feel a surge of love,

When I touch you in the night.

You may come home tired and weary,

But you find me for a kiss,

Regardless of the day I’ve had,

I feel such a sense of bliss.

You help out with the children,

And can cook a gourmet meal,

And even in your jogging clothes,

You’ve still got sex appeal!

I know that Valentine’s the day,

For chocolates, cards and such,

For me, I'd rather that you know,

You’re ALWAYS loved so very much.
