The Little Things About You
Noretta, you’re the most caring person I know
I put a ring on your finger and you said yes
.
You stir my emotions as no other woman does
And you treat me with tenderness and love
.
Sometimes we go for walks in the meadow
And you pick pretty flowers for the vase
.
Your kisses are like honey on my tongue
I’ll never look dejected and woebegone
.
I love your rosy cheeks and pearly teeth
And I really enjoy your distinctive laughter
.
Noretta, you cradle me in my arms like a baby
You make me feel special and comfortable
.
Please stay beside me every night and day
So I can tell you I-love-you whenever I want
.
The day I stop beholding your beautiful face,
Darling, I’ll have a breakdown and fall apart
.
Noretta, I admire the little things about you
And that’s what makes my love for you grow
.
I couldn’t possibly write this poem for you
Without the inspiration that you’ve given me
.
Darling, I know that you like what I’m saying
Your smile shows the love you feel for me
