A Heartfelt Tribute To My Wonderful Wife

Forty-three years I’ve known Victoria,

She came to me under a large tree,

We ended up married near Astoria,

Her presence has always made me free!

I look back on our 43 years together,

At all of the milestones we have shared,

We had our share of joy and weather,

But I could see in her eyes that she cared,

Thank you, Victoria, for your loving heart,

For bringing love and joy into my life,

I’m so happy we have never been apart,

And you’ve been an extraordinary wife!

Four blessed children you gave me,

43 years of beautiful, effervescent love,

Knowing you are a blessing to save me,

You’ve been a true gift from God above,

So here is my tribute to a beautiful gift!

You came into my life truly unexpected,

Your presence always brings me a lift,

It has been a joy to have both connected!

Thank you for patience, joy and peace,

You gave me a true purpose for living,

May my praises for you never cease!

You have been a treasure of giving,

Thank you for everything you bring!

Beautiful, Kind, Loving and True!

And your praises I will always sing,

For as long as I am here with you!
