The Colour Of My Love

In an attempt at romance--after finding there was no time to sort out renewing our vows for our 10th wedding anniversary last week--I found these readings to do at our party 50th birthday/10th wedding anniversary. Mine was quite apt--and Bills had everyone in fits of laughter!  

The Colour Of My Love

I'll paint a sun to warm your heart
Knowing that we'll never part.
I'll draw the years all passing by
So much to learn, so much to try.

I'll paint my mood in shadow blue,
Paint my soul to be with you.
I'll sketch your lips in shaded tones,
Draw your mouth to my own.

I'll trace a hand to wipe your tears
And trace a look to calm your fears.
A silhouette of dark and light
To hold each other oh so tight.

I'll paint the stars in the evening sky,
Draw the light into your eyes,
A touch of love, a touch of grace,
To softly fall on your moonlit face.

And with this ring our lives did start,
Let nothing keep our love apart.
I'll take your hand to hold in mine,
And be together through all time.

         Bill........

To keep your marriage brimming,
With love in the loving cup,
Whenever you're wrong admit it;
Whenever you're right shut up.
