Personal Page

Forgive me for having the impudence to include a personal pages on this site.
These are just a few of the numerous poems I have written at various times
while thinking about people who have enriched my life.

MADELENE

She came to me in my later years
Midst the summer of my life
She's always here beside me
This angel, this woman, my wife

With the pleasure of her presence
And the warmth within her smile
She can banish every care and doubt
And make this life worthwhile

And because she's slight of stature
I'm constantly surprised
How she fills our world completely
With a heart that's oversized

Her lilting laugh brings brightness
To each corner of a room
She fills our hearts with sunshine
There's no space left for gloom

Our home is filled with happiness
She wont let in the strife
She is God's gift to our every need
This angel, this woman, my wife

And because we'd lived alone so long
It was hard for us to learn
How she could give herself completely
And ask so little in return

She strives to keep us happy
She puts her own needs on the shelf
Her thoughts are just for family
And never for herself

She never doubts my reasoning
Though I may fear the road I tread
But with the confidence she gives me
She clears the path ahead

She has such a gentle nature
And a love beyond compare
I can't imagine just one moment
Without her being there

It's not mere infatuation
That I feel when she appears
It's a love that keeps on growing
We've shared more than twenty years

A walking, talking, miracle
She came to pave our way
We love her for so many things
We love her more each day

She's a part of everything we do
She's every part of life
And together we face the future
With our angel, our woman, my wife
