He is ..

As loyal as Aaron
And as smart as Joseph
Weary like Moses his eyes offer tales of pain filled journeys
Of disappointments
Of lost loves
And hopeless dreams
They are suppressed by his smile
The un-dimmable light that emanates from his presence
If he says it will be done
It will be done
If he says he will be there
He will be there
Never one for excuses or implausible rhetoric
He chooses his words with care thought and truth
The seduction of every word
That touches your soul
That shelters you from every storm
Yes
He
Makes
Me
Smile
His unshakable resolve to pursue that which is good
And protect me from the unpleasantries of life
He never lies to me
Is never unkind to me
He is the forbearer of strong values
Defined not by his words but by his deeds
He makes love tenderly
Passionately as men do
Skillfully as men who
Know how to make a woman feel right
Will take his role seriously
Not boyishly
Or fearfully
His body is tough
His hands are rough
In places
Yet capable of great subtleties
He fulfills my needs
He is the sun
the moon
and the stars
He
Is everything
