Thoughts of You

She has my heart and well knows it. A better man lives in me

Rebecca

When I'd converse with other women

I'd always think of you

Your words are much sweeter than theirs

and so much kinder too

When I'd look at other women

I'd wish your face be there

Blue eyes cased in that freckled hue

topped by sweet auburn hair

So when I'd think of other women

or dream away the day

I'd feel of you the summer breeze

that blew my heart away

Author's Note

My loving wife. From whom I take much of my inspiration. She is the reason for everything good in my life.

The best thing a poet can have is someone they can love forevermore!
You got that! Love this! 💛💙
Loved the admiration this piece carried in it.

[Tate Morgan]

Thank u Amy I know many men do not speak of their wives. However monogamy was built for someone like me. I have no problem loving one woman

[Amy R]

that's a blessing!

[Tate Morgan]

It has been. All I wanted was someone to love more than myself. My wife gives me that and my son gave me that. I love both of them more than I ever loved myself

[Chris Shaw]

Another visit to this poem and much enjoyed with it. You have a strong love for your wife, as is evident in every line in this short poem. I would say she is fortunate to have you too, who recognises her many qualities and respects and appreciate them too. Lovely romantic lines Tate. All the best.

Thanks Dave my first marriage lasted 18 yrs this one so far 10 may it be my last . In all my years I’ve never cheated on a women nor given one reason to doubt.

Awesome tribute to your better half. That you compare her to "the anonymous others" out there in the world is what makes your expression unique, a nod to how some women do compare themselves to others & wonder how they stack up! Happy Easter (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Tate Morgan]

Awe thank you. Yeah I want her to know she is the best

[Kelly Scheppers]

My husband has been partially blind now for 3 years, yet every day without fail, he still tells me how beautiful I am. This poem about your wife reminded me of the love that is always there between us in the most tangible way. Thank you!

My very best to you, Tate!
