It’s been quite some time since I’ve been here with words to share. But I’ve been an extremely busy boy. Actually, I’ve been running full tilt now for the past three years, chasing that elusive dream I’d so long been in search of, courting and wooing and winning the heart on an Anghel who lived half-a-world away from me. But yes, I can truly say now that dreams really do come to be reality. And on this day, 5-February 2012, I celebrate a dream come true, the first anniversary of my marriage to the founder of this blog, Lynndee. Getting to this day has been an exciting odyssey, a journey of thousands of miles over many roads, sweet and beautiful as well as bumpy and dusty. The most wonderful part of it all, though, has been that she has been with me every mile, every step of the way, sharing the joy, beauty and mystery of a love so rare. With that being so, I want to share with her, and the rest of the world, some simple words to express my love for the lady who is now my wife as we begin our second year of a journey to forever, together. Happy Anniversary, Anghel Lynndee. Thank you for being my companion on this magical trip This one’s for you…(“,)
ODE TO AN ANGHEL
Little ever could I see
That thousands of miles across the sea
There was a lady in waiting for me
A beautiful Anghel, o’ so fair
With an elegance, o’ so rare
One half of the whole that makes a pair
Fate be so fickle, time so slow
The years passed by, I didn’t know
Until the moment arrived for me to go
On to westward, into the sun
One last chance to find the one
Who’d travel with me till times are done
We’d both waited, o’ so long
Feeling all chance was gone
To find the one to complete our song
But now we’re united, as one, in love
So gentle and peaceful, as a dove
A blessed gift from the Almighty above
