Six...

There are six things about her that I love.
From her smile to her hugs
Or her prowess behind a stove
Or maybe even her fear of bugs.

That's only four, I know.
But what about her radiant glow?
Or the way she makes me feel
Like she can melt a heart of steel...

Here's six more things you may not see:
The love I know she feels for me;
The way her smile lights up the room;
The light floral scent of her perfume;

The way I smile when we talk;
How easily I can imagine our life together;
How she holds my hand when we walk;
And here's a bonus - how we also plan for forever.

On second thoughts, I don't think I can
Distill down all the things I love about her
In to six simple lines or a simple poem;
It'll be like summarising the etymology of the word Fleur.

But those were six stanzas that hopefully tell
The feelings I have for her well.
Because since she came into my life
I've never been happier to call her my wife.
