You Make Me A Good Guy...

I was looking for salvation
Never found it though, until
You fed my starvation
Bent me to your will

You make me a good guy
Yes, you surely do
You love me; don't know why
But not half as I love you

My wild, sowing days are over
I'm content to be at home
I am no more a rover
No longer do I roam

My days are filled with pleasure
Just to be with you
You are my biggest treasure
Because you love me like you do

For Wendy ~ The one who rode me
until I became a man.
With all my love always, Guy

much for the sickly sweet stuff!
At least not in public! LOL Thank you for the friendship you have shown us both. We can only hope that we have given to you as much as you have given us. Love and higgest bugs, Gee and Wendy

I don't believe in the Valentine day, but I loved this. I wish men would dedicate more of these to their ladies through out the year.

A man should let his woman know everyday that he loves and cherishes her! I try to never let a day go by without saying that I love her and giving her a kiss or two. Sometimes I just walk by and hug her or stroke her shoulder... just touch her. Thank you for the read and comment, ~ Gee

Isn't it amazing that the right mate can make us become better than even we thought we could? Try trading places with "longer" and "more" in stanza 3 and see if it flows a bit better.....stan

I agree on both counts! Yes, the right one can make all the difference in the world! I made the suggested changes and you are right there too! Thanks, ~ Gee

This is so tenderly sweet. I can only imagine how special this lady must be. So much emotion and a very pleasurable read. Thank you

We will have been together for 36 years In August. Married for 25! Our relationship has gotten better and better each year. Can't remember when we had the last serious disagreement. There is no way to make anyone who has never had this kind of kind of love, understand what it is like. Thank you for your read and comment. ~ Geezer
