Invisible Chain

“INVISIBLE CHAIN”


HUSBANDS SOMETIMES CALL THEIR WIVES
     THEIR “BALL & CHAIN”
IF THAT WERE TRUE IN OUR CASE
     THEN THE “CHAIN” WOULD BE INVISIBLE.

STARTING FROM THE RING I PLACED ON YOUR FINGER
     LEADING STRAIGHT TO MY HEART.

FOR IT WILL NEVER CONSTRICT OR RESTRAIN
     ONLY REASSURE AND REAFFIRM
          MY LOVE FOR YOU.

I WILL NEVER WALK BEHIND OR IN FRONT OF YOU,
      BUT WILL ALWAYS WALK BESIDE YOU.

THRU GOOD TIMES AND BAD
     THIS “CHAIN” HOLDS STEADY.


SO, WHEN HUSBANDS CALL THEIR WIVES “THE OLE BALL & CHAIN”,
     I SMILE
          FOR OUR “INVISIBLE CHAIN” LEADS STRAIGHT TO MY HEART.
