To My Wife On September 20th,2019: Happy (70th)birthday ….To You, ‘my Love'! !….. [ One's Mate ] Poem by Bri Edwards
To My Wife On September 20th,2019: Happy (70th)birthday ….To You, ‘my Love'! !….. [ One's Mate ]
It happened, nearly twelve years now in our past;
I promised [really? ] that, you, I would outlast.
In other words I ‘promised' I'd not die before YOU,
so, don't forget to die OR my life will NEVER be - -
- -through!
But don't worry.With all the herbs you give to me
I guess, from an imperfect world, I won't be "free".
[Not ever!I'll live even past Mankind's extinction! !
I would be glad to live without such a personal - -
- -distinction! ]
And if I ‘have to' keep living, even one day past you,
hear me well: "On my last day I'll still love you - -
- -TRUE! ! "
(August …26th ….2019)

A poem is a wonderful gift to anyone especially when it is given on a special occasion. A gift that will be treasured a lifetime.
A wonderful poem for your beloved wife. Very lovingly done. A unique and heartfelt write imbued with humor. Liked the ultimate atanza. Very touching.

Ha ha you banter your wife in a super cool and fantastic way! Live past mankind's extinction woah funny. It's a fab bday poem! Kudos!
Hi Bri, A different kind of love letter to your wife. And of course, a fascinating birthday poem. Did your wife read this poem? what was her expression? I wish i had seen it. I like the competition of who will die first. I am sure you will live past mankind's extinction..... :) :) I must vote for this poem of dear poet Bri.....10
Love, life and death....is it time to roll your dice and take your pick. Love survives it all no matter what you pick. happy birthday to your wife.
It begins with a lighter tone, almost all thru, but ends beautifully on a serious note. A good read.
A great avowal of love! But I wonder why you desire so much to outlive her! If she dies before you, she won't be able to hear your declaration of love for her! So keep telling her while she is with you that you will love her till your last breath (so that she will make for you more beautifully flavoured ice creams!) A great birthday gift for your dear one!
A wonderful loving tribute for the love of your life beautifully expressed BRI and don't forget YOU are only as old as you feel?
