MY DARLING

(A dedication to my wife)

My darling, angelic bright.

If ever you're out of sight,

I'll miss you day and night.

Misery will be my plight.

My darling, my guiding light.

From now, I'll have no fright

For worldly evils I can't fight.

All I need is to hold you tight.

My darling, my sheer delight.

Break out singing I just might.

Glorious dreams will take flight

When the love I feel is so right.
