You have me laughing at the worst times
In the line-up, during prayer
I can’t stay within the lines
I watch you wobbling in yoga class
Whether you’re a half moon or a warrior
A cat or a cow
I’m sure: I want you with me everywhere
Right now
Running our races
With short hair
Tacky sweaters
I’m chuckling the whole way
Even through knee surgery
Landlordship
In the worst of it
I want you everyday
You’ll find the sunlight in the storm
Your jokes are a fire in the winter
I’m forever warm
With you beside me
No other I’d rather split coffee with
No other I’d want to accompany me in the pit
I can smile while we wobble
And laugh when we pray
For in life, even in death
In sickness, in health,
There’s a way
Our friendship – what wealth
You’ve made me gloat
More than I could have expected
What a cistern, what a well
Our union
Nothing better than this as far as I can tell
I’m wholly ecstatic
Yet it keeps getting better
Every day, in every way
Always merry
I’m forever happy
Because we’re married
Laughing at the best moments
You’re with me
