I'd give you the moon
if I could,
The stars too,
I really would.
I'd give you a mansion
and a limosine.
But that takes riches
so far, unseen.
For all those at my station
those things are far above.
All I have to offer
is my never-ending love.
It may not be much to offer,
but it is true,
My heart is filled
with love for you.
Many years have past
almost too many to count,
Yet my love for you
continues to mount.
It grows minute-by-minute
hour-by-hour
Through the good times
and the sour.
As we move into our
golden years
I will always hold
your love dear.
In my final breath
as my soul leaves
on the wings of a dove,
Rest assured that eternity
will not dim my love.

For my loving wife's 55th birthday.
Jody must be very proud of you. It is such a beautiful tribute to her.
