wife
My Love is like the sweetest scent of memory lightly heard
Of links in past that formed hearts' bond in passions greatly stirred
By need of Soulmate, friend and lover
Knowledge there could be no other
Love so deep or bond so strong
Filled by sharing worlds gone wrong
In, oh, so many ways
My Love is like the sweetest sound that minstrel ever played
The sound of water tinkling pure when desert's journey made
A hell on earth and desperate need for sustenance and friend
Was met in love, life's sharing bond; time willingly to lend
An ear of shared concern---- and elixir of life
Warmth of mind and body meet; the fortress of that wife
Of all my dreams
My love is like the sweetest taste that life has ever brought
That taste of need fulfilled in love, when body deeply wrought
In hungers of the heart and mind---- was stilled and fed replete
With music of the perfect soul, so heart and mind did meet
In feat of lovely oneness---- timeless meal
To feed life's journey---- bind and seal
The bonding of our lives
