Love Poem: My Wife

My Wife

I would take cute
over profound, any-day;
good feeling-full over
meaningful – God over
science, and my wife
when it comes to dinner;

I will take thick over thinner,
when it comes to gravy and
mashed potatoes; God over
politics, when it comes to
getting along...my wife's
opinion when it comes to
right and wrong;

Beauty wins hands-down,
when it comes to images
and lyrical-sounds; God
on all my paths and grounds
as opposed to stone saints
and preaching clowns – my
wife's love, over a world of
wealth; without love, nothing
of true value, nor health –
