To My Sweet Wife!!
The journey ahead would be surreal
It had been planned for many years.
I’m sure my joy was premature
This journey would cause many tears.
Thus began our steady ascent
The sky was clear without a cloud.
Excitement filled our happy hearts
Being here we felt so proud.
Hours turned into many days
The joy of climbing turned to pain.
Aches and pains were constant friends
Patience was taught again and again.
Some paths we took led us awry
Life was learned as pain set in.
Second guessing our resolve
It seemed that we would never win.
Clouds and rain impaired our sight
The path became a daunting slope.
Undeterred by raging storms
All pressed on with shining hope
With our hearts securely set
On reaching our eternal goal.
Each step would take us closer still
Inch by inch we would be whole.
This journey’s not for faithless folk
You will be tested that is sure.
Once this journey is complete
You’ll find your heart clean and pure.
Gazing at your new found view
All pain is gone and you are new.
I would do it all again
To have a gift so pure and true.
