My Wife
I remember the first time I saw my wife, she was only fifteen. She was beautiful and I fell in love with her at that first moment. I had gone with a couple of friends to the bowling alley, and I said to one of them, "go over to that girl and introduce me." He said "I don't know her," I said "it doesn't matter."
Its been 55 years since that evening, and with so many marriages in trouble these days people sometimes ask me what is your secret. Well there is no secret, just a perspective of who my wife is to me.
"My Wife is Gods special gift to me. My gem of many virtues, my casket of jewels; her voice is sweet music, her smiles my brightest day, her kiss the guardian of my innocence, her arms the pale of my safety, her industry my surest wealth, her economy my safest steward, her lips my faithful counsellor, her bosom the softest pillow of my cares".
