Your silhouetted resilience
of an almost ageless traveler
with kid’s eyes of curious.
Ready for all that is,
wildly wondrous.
Unwilling to miss a viewpoint
be it window wide
or mountaintop.
Fractured city lights illuminate
all the bold and beloved
I see in you.

Partner, Poem, Picture… Such a beautiful chord (chord: a group of (typically three or more) notes sounded together, as a basis of harmony.).

What a lucky man I am to be so appreciated and loved for just being who I am. Marriage is easy when you have that as a foundation. I guess it’s the same for any strong relationship.
I am honored and humbled that you chose and still choose me.

I like the alliteration in ‘kid’s eyes of curious’ and ‘wildly wondrous’, Ali. If only we could all stay that way.
