Impressions from Bette
Like the blazing, red hot ball of fire that she is
She just waltzed into my life and spun my world upside down
Twisting me in every direction
Changing me and the track of our lives forever
Her own little version of destiny
And then taking me with her on the ride of a lifetime
Seriously, I can’t deny that I’m obsessed with her
I have been since the moment we met
Yes, everything about this wondrous woman fills me completely . . .
That phenomenal night when I first took in the incomparable blonde that I adore beyond measure
She had me at that first glance
That first touch of our hands that set me ablaze and made me tingle all over
She speared my heart and soul with unlimited love and joy
No, I had never been in love before
But I willingly fell into this magical realm of eternal love
And from that moment forward, I am and forever will be, in love with her
That first shy smile that set my heart aflutter and still does to this very day
That playful smirk that makes my knees buckle at the mere sight of it
That innocence that is just a cover for her deep emotions and convictions
Those vivid hazel eyes that change hue with her moods
Her feelings
Her thoughts
Her desires
How they tease and challenge me at every turn
How they sparkle as I fall into them with nothing but everlasting love for her
And that charming habit she has of that adorable doubt blink
Her own personal attempt at weakening my defenses even more
That cute nose that flairs with excitement or frustration
The perfection of her mouth and that sly grin she uses to disarm me
To charm me without words
To speak an entire conversation with just a look
That little dimple on her chin
God, it weakens my resolve just thinking about it
And that laugh, that girlish giggle
That enlightens my day and never fails to make me smile
Her rich voice, sweet music to my ears
It caresses me with gentle strokes
And whispers to me of promises to come
Her scent – that perfect mixture of natural essence, fragrant shampoo, her favorite perfume and body lotion
It’s all intoxicating and so addictive that I’m hooked for life
Never wanting to end my intense fascination with her
Unable and unwilling to ever leave her side
She casts her spell over me and I’m helpless to resist
She’s captivating and all encompassing
Her carefree spirit soothing the beast in me when necessary
The perfect lover
The perfect friend
The perfect mother
The perfect wife
Her passion ignites me
Her creativity reaches far beyond my simple endeavors
And now, our gazes find each other and lock
We slip into a world of our own making
No one else exists
Just the two of us
And I’m lost in her once more
These treasures are why I cherish
Love and honor
Tina Kennard . . .
My soulmate
My everlasting love
My strength
My safe haven
My wife
My home . . .
