Thankgiving Day (11.24)
I'm thankful for a great wife

Happy birthday to Lois Farra Watkins who turns [deleted] on Thanksgiving Day. Here's the song I wrote
for her walk down the aisle:

Lois

1. If I could write the love inside,
Pen the feelings that abide,
I'd send a letter, address it to you.
If I could draw the love I feel,
Sketch the love I know is real,
I'd paint that picture, I'd frame it for you.

[chorus]
And yet I never seem to find,
The way to say, "I'm glad you're mine."
To say how much I love you.

2. If I could write a song or two,
Find a rhyme for "I love you."
I'd write that song, I'd sing it for you.
But I can show you by my life,
Live these thoughts through joy and strife,
I'll try my love, I'll live them for you.

[chorus]
