If we are lucky enough in life....
We get lassoed by love's leash hung around our lifely necks.
We meet that special person-whether they be a husband or wife.
That lovely loving woman becomes our life boats first mate on our life's
own living happy decks...
Love's life preserver keeps us afloat in the high seas of life.
As at long last, we've met our wife to live out the rest of our lives
completely happy and without strife...
At last we've landed our floatsome buoy.
Which keeps us on an even keel...
That love that keeps us from a lonesome boring lifely spill.
My wife-I'll never get too mad at her...
I'll never hit or even in anger spank her.
Amen to God from up above...
For bringing us our till life ends-'mately stately love'.
Michael Gale
