Precious Darling

Like the biblical virtuous woman,

A precious friend who can find

Her price is worth more than treasures

Growing separately but never growing apart

Knowing fully well I'm slightly cracked

Yet seeing me as a whole egg

A master of timing

Quiet even when her mind screams for expression

Letting go and hurling at me when the time is right

Gently prodding and chiding

Two connected minds

Just an exchange of glance

And a world of jokes are exchanged

Secret smiles are shared

Silly ideas are exchanged

For me, she hangs in

Stays connected

Fights for me

Allow me fight for her

You are part of the glue which holds me together

Let's keep laughing with

And at each other

Having you to journey my life with

Is the best gift of my life

I love you for everything you are

And aren't!
