An Abbreviated History of Love, on the occasion of Valentine's Day 2010

She bounced into my life, and now she's my wife.
The steps in-between are often unseen:
In our busiest days, stuff gets in the way.

She held close my heart as our paths split apart.
Those long days and hours showed hearts’ hidden powers.
Coming back to each other, love had grown stronger.

The touch of her hand or embrace of her man
Spoke the depths of the love we were so conscious of;
And rejoicing in grace, we kept singing His praise.

This marriage thing’s great, these past months – near’ 8.
Love’s growth will not halt: now a baby results!
I love you forever, O dearest of treasures!!!
