Surrounded by Love

Many years together  
In the middle of the night  
Between hot flashes  
Trips to the bathroom  
Dog snoring and shaking  
A quiet snuggle with her  
Last night as many nights  
I called her my flower  
Last night she said  
"I love being your flower"  
Then somehow we both fell out  
Sleep is a luxury  
As is our love

Author's Note
We got married the first time in early April many years ago.  City Hall ceremony.  Didn't tell to many people.  Wanted to put her on my health insurance.  BIG wedding in September of that year.  My shining star 🌟
