How Could I Not Love You.
 By Joan Estelle High
©January 2003  

I sat down to write this little poem especially for you.
Trying to get down on paper about our love so true.
 I was hoping  to explain, the love my heart contains
 Our two souls joined , both in sunshine and in rains.

Lots of dreams we shared, in the years that we spent.
Day filled with worry and also days of deep content.
 For not  all years were good since we first got together.
Some days had blue skies and others  rotten weather.

Be it springtime with  sunny days, summer with its heat.
Brisk wind of autumn blowing or winter's snow and sleet.
No matter what luck came our way or how hard the season.
You  made my life complete and gave my life more reason

 I love you for your gentle hands that wiped away my tears.
For your strong arms around me that chased away my fears.
Thank you for your loving heart that overlooked my ways.
For your humor and your smiles that brighten up my days.

You have been a friend to me,  plus my lover tried and true.
My companion upon life's seas, How could I not love you.?
