I love you
      In the first opening of my eyes
      Anticipating our embrace
      In the embracing of the new day

      I love you
      In the stretching of my muscles
      Ready to meet the challenges
      That you will bring me

      I love you
      In the splash and flow of the shower
      Washing free my heart
      The previous day's cares and exertions

      I love you
      And am thankful for the food
      I am given
      Savoring anew every bite

      I love you
      Every step of the way
      You lead me
      Through the fulfilling of the dream

      I love you
      With every rock I move
      Every sculpting of the vision
      Every detail of the picture

      I love you
      Through everyone you greet me
      All eyes through which you see
      Every addition to our ever growing family

      I love you
      Every moment of every day...
      And when my weary bones I lay
      I love you kiss and be with me.
