For Tony and Helen Savage, my late in laws. The older your daughter gets the more lovely she becomes.

Lovely next to beauty is where I find you,

In the middle of astonishing

My breathtaking view

I could search the world over

And not find a more spectacular scene

In your arms is where I find my dreams

It may sound cliché but sometimes

The best phrases can’t be rearranged

Next to you is where I want to reside

Watching your beauty change

As our love remains the same

    This is so beautiful, I know your wife is proud of you because I am and I’m just a fellow North Carolinian. Hope its ok, I added you as a friend. You know how that goes in the NC, were all one big happy family, at least they are in my hood. Thanks for sharing.
