To see you in a thousand different lights,
and watch the shadows play upon your face.
To revel in the myriad delights,
that sun and stars would delicately trace.
To sense your every mood and temperament,
observe you comprehend and then respond,
with feelings pensive or ebullient,
that I might share with you a closer bond.
To touch you in a thousand different ways,
to make you laugh, or stir you with desire,
to gently chide you, or to sing your praise,
to comfort you, to cheer you, and inspire.
To understand you is my goal in life.
A husband needs to know about his wife.
