Trinket
Trinket of mine you are
Right from the very start
I knew you'd be for me
No one finer I'd see
Keeping score these ten years
Every day calmed my fears
Trinket to me you are

- Update Noon, July 14. YOU were correct if you sensed trouble with the last two lines. That part is NOT us, Mrs. Jim and I have been married 46 years since last February. 47th honeymoon this Fall?
Ah, sweet! And I'm sure you are equally treasured.
ReplyDeleteSome trinkets aren't treasures - others are treasures we don't let go of! Obviously she's your treasure :)
ReplyDeleteA sweet acrostic and proof that trinkets can be kept for ever.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope she has a trinket of you too. Now where is her poem of you?!
ReplyDeleteOne can't imagine! A loved one can often appear to be taken for granted that one just seems to be unfair to her presence. It is often a fault of familiarity that clouds the mind.

Awwww... but that last line gives me a little pause. I'm thinking a bit like Hank, maybe this familiarity is causing the bloom to fade from the rose? I hope not.
ReplyDeleteGood job Jim@
ReplyDeleteI was reading AWWWW so sweet, until your last line threw me. Maybe your trinket turned to gold. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, guys. I changed my last word from were to are. It now fits the poem's tense. I really did mean 'were' but to make it right with Gramar I would have to have a transition line or two.
