The Worst Poem Ever

It has been a goal of mine in this blog to write you something memorable. Something like a poem or a song. I try honey, I really do. I just lack that kind of talent.

So instead I thought I would simply list some random thoughts I have been having about you lately. Together they make kind a poem of sorts, but without that artsy feel.

  • When you told me about the stuff your were putting on your eyes all I could think was that I never would have noticed the lines. I simply can't see past the eyes themselves.
  • The late night conversations we had while I was in Vegas are exactly the reason our relationship is so special. Every person I told about them seemed almost jealous that they weren't doing the same with their spouse. It was the perfect way to end every day.
  • Do you notice that I wear cologne on days when I am leaving you so that my last hug leaves you with my smell? That is why I had to spray the bed when I left for Vegas. I know I miss your smell when i am gone and I hoped you missed mine too.
  • Sadly, I have been thinking about Broccoli Soup all week. As of now I am about 24 hours away from a steaming bowlful.
  • I think your presidential chair is just perfect for you. I also think it is really cute that you call it the presidential chair.
  • Our bed really looks great. You really have a flair for that stuff. Over nearly 20 years I have simply come to expect that you will have our home looking perfect. Your meticulous attention to detail makes all the difference.
  • Is it wrong that I was so fascinated with the fact that you got new underwear? I really did just look forward to seeing them every night. I know I need help.
  • Friday night was just wonderful. After being away for so long, it had a first date feel to it. Amazingly we can still create that kind of romance between us after 20 years.

OK so it isn't a poem. But it is still cool. What is so cool is that our life together has so many little, unexpected moments that make the whole thing so perfect. Small things that fit together into such an important big thing.

I love you my beautiful bride. Every moment of every day.
