Lover

My lover is very special

he might not be a superman,

or an Olympian, no he's just

and ordinary guy that was

at my side, in good and not so

good time. .. 

But don't tell him, he might get

offended, believing he is the  

best person on this earth. 

Sure he is, but like all humans

faults are shown on a daily basis.

But I love him with all his faults,

is little beer stomach, is lousy jokes.

Let's not get too fussy or he will

tease you for days and forget

all his good promises, but he's

still my lover from the first time

that I laid eyes on him. 

Do not leave me now, I would

not survive and would follow

you as soon as I could. You are

my rock, my lover, my provider...

PS: I swear not to nag you when

we leave this world and grow 

old as angels laughing our way

through fluffy clouds, with

you and your beer and me with

my glass of white wine. 

NB: Thank you to this gentleman

who I met on one of my walks

in a park and started to tell me a

bit of his life and the loss of his

beloved wife who had passed away

three months earlier.
