Was Fate the hand that guided me that night?
Did Destiny thence deign her wild decree?
How came I hence within her golden light,
A risen spark within my soul set free?
We danced and kissed and walked and talked and ate,
We walked and talked and kissed the night away;
The dawning light alas refused to wait,
We parted with new-lovers gaited sway,
And so e'er since my love for thee has grown,
No hour of mine has e'er since been alone;
You stand by me as once pledged at the altar
And hold me strong when I am prone to falter ~~
You are my sun, my moon, my earth, my sky,
And intertwined we live, we love, we die

Did Destiny thence deign her wild decree?
How came I hence within her golden light,
A risen spark within my soul set free?
We danced and kissed and walked and talked and ate,
We walked and talked and kissed the night away;
The dawning light alas refused to wait,
We parted with new-lovers gaited sway,
And so e'er since my love for thee has grown,
No hour of mine has e'er since been alone;
You stand by me as once pledged at the altar
And hold me strong when I am prone to falter ~~
You are my sun, my moon, my earth, my sky,
And intertwined we live, we love, we die
I am finally home after 7 weeks in hospital.
The road ahead is long, and will have many undulations, but for now I am grateful, and penned this for my ever loving wife who has stood valiantly at my side.
