VOWS II
Friday, 28. March 2008, 01:57:36
I stand before you an imperfect man
but my heart desires to be perfect for you
May I strive always for respect and honor of you
May you always find me patient and kind
with no record keeping of wrongs
my heart is always yours
I will strive to be a man worthy of your trust
as long as breath is in me
I promise to always appreciate your uniqueness
When it rains - I will be your shelter
When the sun beats down upon your brow - I will provide you shade
When storms come upon us - you will find me always holding your hand
When the winds whip about your form - I will soothe your cuts
When you find it difficult to breath when life is overwhelming - I will give you joyfully my last breath
When your have born all my children - I will take great delight in you
When you are old - I love every line that tells me you loved me, every grey hair that says you were with me....
For you are my life and breath
You are my rock and home that steadys my heart and gives me bold courage
Today I give you all these things
for you are worthy to be loved and loved well
Maree Long
