Her* Thirtieth November-Tenth

You were added a year to Twenty-Nine,

as You bring more joy to this lover* you call “Mine.”

If a man should grow old fruitful and love-filled, (indeed)

I am the one** that you have married.

You turn shadows into colors,

Your wisdom dries the worry of tomorrows,

If a spouse is counted friendship-wealthy,

I am best-qualified because you are my Lady.

You nurture motherhood by grace-bound faith,

Your dedication to our child***, who can equate?!

If a father can raise godly children,

I am a proud teammate of their godly mother.

You warm my heart with your persistent loving,

Your commitment to God beautifies your aging.

If a husband is called blessed for his wife,

I am in daily encounter with blessedness**** my whole life.

You make my heart write its gratitude into feasting endlessness, for

Your life resembles the most beautiful of a woman's essences.

If a day is annually named "November Tenth,"

I am always praising our God to a highest extent.

…

Happy Birthday, my Honey! Thank you for the very sweet and wonderful life that you are sharing with me. If there is a man who married the most beautiful woman who ever lived, I am that man. #forever #forlove #forChrist

#iloveyou
