The gestalt:
... of a wonderous,
deeply enduring connection;
imbued with admiration and respect.
With awe.
A heart given fully - completely.
An embraced launch into a future,
upheld by all our hopes
and life-long desires.
This bold courage,
this joy,
this full-soul commitment is now,
it's you, it's us.
Your eyes mirror
the subtleties I feel in your touch.
We have in our hands our miracle -
encircled by poems,
by song in any tongue.
My most beloved -
holy you are to me.
And now,
– four years on,
the miracle lives on,
as desireous as on day one,
like a perpetually opening rose:
an abundance in colour, fagrance,
and iterative wonderment.
I dedicate this day to you
I dedicate this week to you,
I dedicate this month ...
... this year -- my life:
with all my heart, my soul, and will.
