My Everything By:Jim Gandolf

To My Everything on Her 47th

Poem

From the very first moment our paths ever crossed,

I knew in an instant, my heart had been lost.

It wasn't a flicker, or a slow-burning spark,

But a light that immediately conquered the dark.

For forty-seven years, the world’s grown more bright,

But it’s the time that we’ve shared that feels perfectly right.

You are "extremely everything"—my partner and friend,

A beautiful story I hope never ends.

You carry a grace that the years only gold,

A spirit more vibrant as chapters unfold.

In every reflection, in all that you do,

I’m still the same person just falling for you.

So here’s to the laughter, the life, and the soul,

The half of my heart that has made me feel whole.

Happy Birthday, my love, may your day be as true,

As the lifelong devotion I’ve found within you.
