Love of my life and my forever

I am in a TOTALLY romantic mood today due to the famous Stephanie Meyer. I have just finished "New Moon." I will comment on the whole series once it is complete. Until then, DON'T SPOIL ANYTHING FOR ME.

First, I want to refer all back to the item on my list of 100 stating that I know I married the right person. Now, I will share with you some poetry that I have written for him in the past few years.

“Work on You and Me”
A SONG for JAW by JML Whitehead 6/06

Well they say in the year two thousand and six
That old eight to five simply don’t exist.
You work a fifty hour week, just to be able
To keep gas in the car and food on the table.

WORK! To get the basement finished.
WORK! The yard is edged and mowed.
WORK! There aint no time for sittin’
Cause you know you’ll only reap what you sow.

WORK! Can give you satisfaction
When you think about how you’re buildin’ your dreams
But now the sun has set. The day is done,
So baby sit right down and let’s work on you and me.

Oh I appreciate your capabilities,
Your undying motivation and your energy.
I know you believe that love is a verb,
And your actions speak just as loud as words.

WORK! To get the basement finished.
WORK! The yard is edged and mowed.
WORK! There aint no time for sittin’
Cause you know you’ll only reap what you sow.

WORK! Can give you satisfaction
When you think about how you’re buildin’ your dreams
But now the sun has set. The day is done,
So baby sit right down and let’s work on you and me.

Countless projects to be done
Life’s material things keep us on the run
But the most important task there could ever be
Is you and me workin’ together, to raise our little family…

WORK! To get the basement finished.
WORK! The yard is edged and mowed.
WORK! There aint no time for sittin’
Cause you know you’ll only reap what you sow.

WORK! Can give you satisfaction
When you think about how you’re buildin’ your dreams
But now the sun has set. The day is done,
So baby sit right down and let’s work on you and me.
Sit down right here, baby, and let’s work, work on you and me.



STEADY

Written for my love, John Alden Whitehead By his love Julia Marie, April ’07

Steady
You’re constant.
I waver.
You remain

Steady
Refilling
The tears that
I drain.

Steady
With reason
And courage
I lack.

Steady
Your vision
Is gleaming.
No black.

Steady
A river
That quenches
And soothes

Steady
My comfort
And promise
Is you.

I long to
Be steady
Reactions
All wise

I relish
The steadiness
Found in
Your eyes

Our lives are
Unsteady
Emotions
They change

Though times
Overwhelm me
My heart will
Remain

Steady
Devoted
My feelings
Are true.

Steady
Forever
Is my love
For you.
