About the Poem

This was written for my husband at a time when I could not afford to buy him a birthday gift I gave him this poem and he has kept the small piece of paper in his wallet for 13 years now.

Birthday Gift

by Nina

There are things I'd like to say
to you my love on your special day:

I am forever thankful God sent you my way.

Like a gift from up above,
you showed me how it is to feel real love.

I know many mountains we've had to climb
and sometimes forever has seemed like a very long time.

Yes, we've endured our share of pain,
but together we have so much to gain.

Bigger mountains may lie ahead,
but together there is no hill we can not tread.

So always remember my love for you,
and there is nothing together we can not do.

I'll be here forever - my love is true.
The person beside me, that would be you.

This is a wonderful expression of a wife's love for her husband. True poetry makes the reader feel emotions and this is definitely one of the best examples of that.
