Happy Valentine's Day~ To My Dear and Loving Husband
If ever two were one, then surely we.
If ever man were lov'd by wife, then thee.
If ever wife was happy in a man,
Compare with me, ye women, if you can.
I prize thy love more than whole Mines of gold
Or all the riches that the East doth hold.
My love is such that Rivers cannot quench,
Nor ought but love from thee give recompetence.
Thy love is such I can no way repay.
The heavens reward thee manifold, I pray.
Then while we live, in love let's so persever
That when we live no more, we may live ever.
~Anne Bradstreet (1678)
Oh, I like that. My Valentine's day card is already made, but this would make a lovely anniversary sentiment. Look at that, the blog world has given me two great ideas this week. It's making me lazy:-) Have a great Valentine's Day.
