And what is that snow in your hair?
I bet you love those little white flakes.
Want to get rid of your dandruff?
Staying off the grog is all that it takes.
Always in a good mood, ready to do something else,
and I must admit, you did like to joke around,
but what I wouldn't give to hear your laugh once more,
because truly, it really was such a happy sound.
Now, we have only been together for a little over 3 years,
I guess we met relatively late on in life,
but <NAME>, I just wanted to say that I'm proud of you,
I'm very proud and honored to be called your wife.
Last year I searched so many stores,
in truth, I searched long and hard, high and low,
but I ended up giving you chocolates and a card,
and now there are some things you need to know.
And the seeds of greatness,
don't grow in the bottom of a vodka glass,
so let's think to your glorious future,
and not drink to the glories of your past.
In truth, I love your passion and enthusiasm for fishing,
even though it means we have to spend time apart,
but you've also patiently taught me to love it as well,
so I guess, in this instance, I will have to share your heart.
Even after three years, I'm absolutely crazy about you,
but I really miss you on those fishing weekends,
I still get a pain in my heart when I know you're going away,
but look, I don't want to spoil your "passion" time, with your friends.
And I'll never forget our beautiful, so perfect wedding,
I don't remember ever feeling as happy as I did on that day,
I will never forget the way you looked at me as you spoke,
your eyes said everything that you needed to say.
And I imagined my Daddy,
walking me down that aisle,
I could see the look on his face,
I could see the pride in his smile.
I love your passion for sports and your athleticism,
I love your enthusiasm for life in general, your spirit,
you will come up with something fun to do at the drop of a hat,
it seems that your motto is: "This is life, let's be in it".
Firstly, I think we'll begin by looking skywards,
and thanking those in the heavens above,
because we know we've been blessed to have shared you,
we know that we've been blessed with your love.
I could go on but the major point I want to stress is this:
I love you with every fiber of my being, my very soul,
for <NAME>, with you in my life I feel complete,
yes, you are the one that makes me completely whole.
Every time you?d pick me up from school in that Renault,
well, it made me appreciate everything you?ve done,
because your love has been my light, my inspiration,
in every way, you?ve been like my morning sun.
We have a 29 year difference in our age
but that has not stopped us from enjoying each other,
you're my best friend, my confidant,
you're my husband and yes, my lover.
I was deeply in love with you after only a few dates,
and without being presumptuous, you were in love as well,
you made your commitment very clearly, very early on,
you obviously knew that we had a tale to tell.
Ah, Mignonne, in how few hours,
The petals of her purple flowers
All have faded, fallen, died;
Sad Nature, mother ruinous,
That seest thy fair child perish thus
'Twixt matin song and even tide.
And you can have the biggest house in the world,
and you can have a holiday in perfect paradise,
but if you can't find the time for love,
I'll tell you, it's just not worth the price.
I don't know how we are going to continue without you,
so I'm going to carry you here with me, in my soul,
for with you in my life, I did feel complete,
yes (NAME), you are the one that makes me completely whole.
I love how, without hesitation and conditions,
you embraced my children, tightly to your chest,
you never made them feel you were the "replacement",
and in the difficult times, you just did your very best.
You love those old black and white movies,
and from Cleveland, you've travelled afar,
and I think our wedding song was simply perfect,
because you are loved: "Just the way you are"
The people in the adverts,
were always young and oh so bright,
slim, exciting and attractive,
their clothes seemed to fit just right.
And in your short life, you faced many obstacles,
in truth, there's just too many to individually list,
just know that you've taught us all so very much,
and yes, (NAME), you are going to be sadly missed.
We just can't understand why you were taken from us,
but I guess in the end, you had to answer God's call,
He obviously had a greater purpose for you up there,
although what you achieved on Earth was by no means small.
