My Man
Looking back, he really was romantic
strong arms laden,
uncomplaining, toting (my) beach essentials,
and I, brazen
did follow, admiring view from behind,
a fair maiden
quite taken with her man; today more so -
sweetly wadin’
through sand and surf, his burden heavier,
yet unshaken
for he’s quite blessed with six children and wife.
