So many women friends,
I see my wife in different light
Now that I”m almost sixty-eight
Strong, independent, truly the peral
I’ve always known– she is not affraid
To correct me, Marjorie from Margarita,
Pearl of one mind, she manages
Our money, drives me to my doctors,
Though nearly blind in one eye,
Better driver of her car, and registration
Of her vehicle IN HER NAME,
Wonderment, I’m on the deed,
My dead is more responsive, more
Responsible with weekly allowance
She gives me, I love her more,
She allows me into our daughter’s
Strong independent life, as our
Daughter allows my peace of mind,
Laurel Ann, accolade of our upbringing
Coming to the comprehensives
Of her doctorate– soon she will
Be doctor Laurel, earned name,
So many accolades, I took responsibility
There, dad’s showing at theaters
Of daughter’s movies, love we shared,
Then our Pearl, her mom, me privildged
Two strong women, Wife and Daughter,
Two friends I love, but show, don’t tell.
