Rebecca

She is this new babe crying little flower abloom on the hill Oh be for we both worth trying oh be for my life this thrill

My wife Rebecca, light of my life!

She is the bright sun shining

melting on us butter and cream

Oh be our two hearts entwining

oh be for my hope this dream

___________________________

She is such the new babe crying

little flower abloom on the hill

Oh be for we both worth trying

oh be for my life this thrill

__________________________

She is the love without compare

beauty like a new born spring

Oh be of our eye's sweet stare

oh be for my love everything

Author's Note

The air is sweeter, the night is cooler. Life springs forth anew. Such is my life since meeting Rebecca. I remember thinking to myself, what does she see in me? I am prone to times when I am depressed. I wondered till recently how Becky would react in those dark days. Thankfully she is a dream come true. She took my hand, calmed the seas of doubt and led me to the light!
"God grant me this one extravagance. May she and I dance to this tune till the end of time"!!

Seems as if you could write a hundred books of your love for her, and it would only be the beginning.... Beautifully confessed and filled with that sense of sunshine summer days, even when when winter comes. You are blessed to have her in your life... and she is blessed to have you.

Here's hoping that all which you wish for Rebecka will come true. It'll turn the sunshine in the hills into the life we seek.

This reminds me of sweet summer days where freedom is no longer a dream but reality. U have obviously found freedom in this wonderful woman. It sad though, that i have read this in a state where i feel a bit broken hearted. But the love in this rises over it all. I love it:)
ps she has very beautiful eyes:)
