Poem a Day, Day 4

Today's challenge was to write about something for which you are thankful. I am eternally grateful for...

My Wife

You challenge me
Have I been up to the challenge?

You inspire me
Have I been inspiring?

You love me
Have you felt loved?

For all of these things I am grateful
Do you feel appreciated?

You are a cool breeze off of the
snow-capped mountains
You are sea-mist off of the
grandest ocean
You are lush grass in a
desert oasis
You are my life
I will cherish you
You are my love
I will protect you
You are my wife
I adore you
