Thank You Darling

I take every opportunity 
to tell you I Love You, 
but seldom do I manage 
to add a Thank You too. 

So now while I am sitting here 
just thinking of your smile 
let me tell you what I’m thankful for 
though it may take a little while. 

Thank you for your friendship 
of course that is number one! 
Thank you for your concern 
when my life feels all undone. 

Thanks a million for your shoulder, 
I hope you don’t mind when it’s wet, 
and thanks so much for giving me 
moments I will not forget! 

Thank you for understanding, 
and for letting me be ME 
but don’t let me forget to say 
Thank you for Loving me! 

Now if this seems all one sided 
Darling, don’t you fret, 
for this is still not everything 
I haven’t said it all just yet! 

For I still want to thank you 
for feeling close enough to me 
to let me know your troubles 
and set your feelings free. 

Thank you dear for talking, 
when you need to let it out 
and thank you for believing 
I’m here for you without a doubt. 

And Thank you Dear for knowing 
that when I give you little things 
it’s not the gift that matters 
but that they each give my heart wings! 

Thanks for learning, thanks for teaching, 
thanks for sharing with me too, 
and most of all, my Darling, 
thanks for letting me Love you!
