I have been contemplating for a few weeks now what I wanted to engrave in JB’s ring. After searching countless websites for ideas, I remembered the title of a poem that I wrote for him in September of 2003. So I’m now headed to a jeweler to get “You Make My Heart Smile” engraved in his ring along with our wedding date. Here is the poem that inspired me. Heh. I inspired myself!
You Make My Heart Smile
I don’t know why
I’m so afraid
If you weren’t real
I would make you up.
I’d imagine the love
In your green eyes,
The taste
Of your soft lips,
The sound of our laughter,
And the feel of your hand in mine.
Every day I grow closer to you
And realize more and more
That you’re exactly
What I’ve been looking for.
You make me laugh,
You make me sigh,
You give me butterflies,
But most of all,
You make my heart smile.
Take my hand
We’re in this together
I can’t wait to see
Where this path leads.
