The One My Soul Loveth!
By, Cheryl Harwell Bailey

"I have found the one, my soul loveth."
 One of my favorite scriptures. 
It happened to me 
"my beloved,"
 the day we met.
 You are so much more than I deserve. 
Your heart is so wise, romantic and tender,
 and always faithful. 
You are my elegant "gentleman."

 If I had been blind, I would have fallen in love with you,
 for your deep eloquent voice. 

If I had been deaf, I would have fallen in love with you,
 for you are the most handsome man, on the earth. 

If I been both blind and deaf, I would have fallen in love with you, for the tenderness in your touch.

The scent of your neck alone makes me want to 
breathe you into my soul.
 I need so much more than mere words, 
in any language, to express my heart. 
 Words are all I have to speak or write, my love.

"Happy Anniversary,"
 On this our 47th year of bliss, my blessed "Husband!"
