A Valentine to My Wife


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Accept, dear girl, this little token,
And if between the lines you seek,
You'll find the love I've often spoken—
The love my dying lips shall speak.

Our little ones are making merry
O'er am'rous ditties rhymed in jest,
But in these words (though awkward—very)
The genuine article's expressed.

You are as fair and sweet and tender,
Dear brown-eyed little sweetheart mine,
As when, a callow youth and slender,
I asked to be your Valentine.

What though these years of ours be fleeting?
What though the years of youth be flown?
I'll mock old Tempus with repeating,
"I love my love and her alone!"

And when I fall before his reaping,
And when my stuttering speech is dumb,
Think not my love is dead or sleeping,
But that it waits for you to come.

So take, dear love, this little token,
And if there speaks in any line
The sentiment I'd fain have spoken,
Say, will you kiss your Valentine?
-Eugene Field

Her smile has life.

Her eyes are full of love.

Womens In My Life

I was born,
a woman was there to hold me.......... my mother

I grew as a child

jaisa bhi hai mera sachcha yar hai tu

Sach bol raha hun dost.. Dhyan se padhna,

Lessons Taught

Sit up straight, speak with grace

Be a lady, fashionably late.

Always walk tall,

When I Was One-and-Twenty
When I was one-and-twenty
I heard a wise man say,
‘Give crowns and pounds and guineas

You Used Me

You used me.

I thought you were the key,

But the truth is that you used me,

Blinded By Love

You keep running from the truth; you know it's true.

You think I am crazy for loving you.

You Will Never See Me Fall

You may see me struggle,

but you won't see me fall.

Regardless if I'm weak or not
