Thank You for Sharing Your Love

Thank You for sharing your love
Thank You for sharing your life.
A gift not bound by earthly ties
much greater than heart and soul.

Your love embraces with kind, gentle arms
not controlling, not begging
but with care and support.
There are no commands, no pleas for help
just two kind souls on a journey through life.

The warm embrace
the gentle kiss on the cheek
the shared passions of a wondrous love.
No greater gift can exist on this earth
given only by God from above.

Thank You for the joys
the few tears, the laughter
all shared by two souls in love.
Thank You for sharing your life, your love
the greatest gifts ever given on earth.
