My Treasure

The colors change

Blue pink and orange

then to navy.

Pretty and Bright.

Then to Darkness.

But it will burn you

It will sting your eyes

then when it is over.

It will leave you in eerie darkness.

With the deafening sound of crickets.

Infinite Wisdom

My wife, who is my closest confidant and best friend, is beautiful, smart, funny, kind, patient, and compassionate. You, however, do not want her because God, in His infinite wisdom, created her just for me, and me just for her. Neither of us would work with anyone else.

My brother, who has his quirks just like me, is there for me every time I need him, and I for him as well. We share the bond of philadelphia well. We know and understand each other in a way no one else can comprehend. But you would not want him because God, in His infinite wisdom, knew that we were meant to be brothers and none other would fit.

My children, now grown and better men than me, still share a wonderful relationship with me, their mother, and each other. While the each have their own strengths and weaknesses, their hearts are good, their minds clear, and their members willing and able to do what is right. But you would not want them because God, in His infinite wisdom, gave them to me and their mother alone to love, teach, encourage, and prepare. In any other home they would be different people; not to say bad people or worse people, but different people. They are now who they were, have always, been meant to be.

My treasure

My hubby makes life worth living.

He has been my calm, the tortoise to my manic hare.

My own personal chef who can make sushi making easy.

His athletic physique makes me bite my lower lip.

He puts up with my needs.

My I want child like attitude.

When I was at my lowest he pulled me out of the well of despair.

But

You don’t want him.

He pops his bum to one side when he farts and proudly smiles.

He blows his nose into the air when no one looking.

His military career means he’s away 9 months out of the year.

When he sees red he implodes and has to be calmed down.

If he doesn’t get his own time to exercise he becomes agitated.

What I see in him you don’t see and that what makes him mine.

My treasure.
