Poetry: A letter to my wife

by Vinay Jalla

Created on: October 24, 2009   Last Updated: October 27, 2009

My dearest wife,

One night, an angel appeared in my dream
It was a She with eyes full of gleam

So it was confirmed a woman I need
To take care of me to cook and feed

It was the first day of November
The day I'll always remember

Too many hopes, expectations and a bit of confusion
What I was about to witness I clearly had no notion

I saw what I'd never seen
A place in my heart I'd never been

Proverbial clouds made way for sun's golden rays
I sensed a morning star with a divine face

A Goddess dressed in a golden sari
Descended from heaven and agreed to marry

Promises of togetherness engraved in stone
Loving and caring in flesh and bone

Her presence is like a breath of fresh oxygen to my mind
Nurturing and nourishing with tenderness so kind

True in every thought is my beloved wife
Enmeshed in wedlock for life after life

Yours truly,

V
