KNOWING HIM

I fell for him the day we met.

He was familiar and comfortable, but better!

What would I find if I really got to know him,  if I took a chance?

Chances with others were awkward, brief, frustrating at best.

Would it be worth finding out he was just like the others but

Veiled in an alluring package?

Still, I wanted to know. I mean what did I have to lose?

38 years of knowing him, loving him, cherishing this amazing gift in my life.

Each day is different and new. Challenges and victories shared.

Emotions and fears explored,enjoyed, conquered, together!

Familiar and comfortable, but better!

Knowing him!
