My Wife

My Wife

By my grandpa James

Some people store up treasures of gold

But none can compare with the one that I hold

Like a beauteous gem – polished and shined

This treasure I have is one of a kind.

‘Tis my wife Lil you see,

Who puts up with me and takes care of my needs

No gem can compare with my wife, she’s of the highest degree

Cooking, sewing, mending and looking to my many needs.

So you can have your treasures of gold

I’ll be content with the patient and loving care

From this gem of a wife, who never grumbles or scolds

So God Bless her each day, as each day we share.

Saying: Be pleasant until ten o’clock in the morning and the rest of the day will take care of itself.
