Poem for her 143

Dear Readers,



Holding Her


Close in a slow dance over the floor
Close when we do the dishes together
Close when she has a headache and I sooth her
Close to me as I write her a love song
Close to me as she sings me our song
Close as she does a chore, every chore we share
Close as I rub her in a long massage
Close in a slow walk down the lanes of time
Close all our years going forward
I will always be holding her close


Happy Birthday Babe,

Charles.
