A Wife Poem by Ray Hansell

You're with me every night
When I close my eyes to sleep
You're with me every morning
As a new day we seek

You're with when I'm lonely
When I'm feeling down and out
You're there to help me understand
When life causes many doubts

You're by my side when I'm laughing
You're right there when I feel pain
You love me in the sunshine
You shelter me from the rain

To me you are many things
That I've loved in life
But most of all you have been
A caring and loving wife
