Analysis of My Wife



What is more beautiful than the woman that I love?
Is it the sunrise.....? No
Sunset.....? No
The ocean.....? No
Nothing shall compare...
She had the purity of the first day break
The fire of the evening set
And the passion of the ocean full
How do I love the? Let me count the ways.
I shall end here as I love thee too deeply to count and too wide to measure.
