Her Day Poem by Bironga Chadwick

A sea around my heart,
Part shelter, part enduring word,
Part mirror of my art,
Mirrored in a ragged writing pad,
Part life, part promises,
Of our priorities, no compromises,

You are the calm that drains my rages,
And the hinge on which my life wedges,
Bliss upon my shores,
The quick-fix that my life restores,
And the recipient of all my affection,
And the hidden innermost emotion,

Like a gift from up above,
You've doused me in a sea of pleasant love,
We've gone through a lot of pain,
And everyday together is a big gain,
Bigger mountains may lie ahead,
But together ahead we will tread,

As you celebrate your birthday,
May it also be a party day,
For all the endurance our love has gone through,
And to each other we remain true,

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
