It is my darling heart’s birthday today, and this is one of my birthday presents to her….Happy Birthday my darling, the truly wonderful Anita-Clare Field!

images-5My past’s contained in sound bites,
Wed, yet not a pigeon pair,
Fights and sleights, yet few insights,
It felt like solitaire.

Then you walked into my life,
A wounded creature too,
You too’d felt heartache, torture, strife,
Felt the world askew.

I think we saved each other,
From feeling lost and sad,
And scared and kind of smothered,
In a place gone bad and mad.

And now, each time I see your face,
It’s like the world’s been forged anew,
And all my happiness and grace,
Is bound firmly up in you.

I feel like we share everything,
Goals and views and schemes,
I feel my future’s on the wing,
We’ll achieve our hopes and dreams.

No longer feeling I’m alone,
Walking a solitary path,
Everywhere WE are is home,
YOU, its heart, its hearth.
