How Do I Love Thee, let me count the ways..........
I love thee as a wife loves a husband, with dignity and delight
with pride and honor as a truly blessed wife
I love thee as a woman loves a man, with freedom and right
with giving and taking as a woman might
I love thee with my innermost being, and all it has to extend
with all the privileges allowed in a lovers heart
I love thee with my body, such as it is I do to thee proffer
with all that I am and this is me to you I offer
A love so deep and meaningful resides within my soul
you are the one that made me whole
A passion so great and wonderful excites my conscience
you are the man that touches me
A love that will stand the test of time is ours this day
and forever it shall be this way
For I am yours and you are mine, together we shall stay
As we walk this world and learn to play
