The Anniversary Gift



Tonight when you go to sleep,
Our anniversary, is your gift to keep.
Just as your love for me,
Is the sweetest gift that ever could  be.
Your smile ignites a fire in me,
It warms my heart and soul completely.
That twinkle in your eye that only I can see,
is the brightest star in the heavens Shining just for me.
Tonight as you sleep, together we shall be,
Your tender lips touch mine as you begin to kiss me.
I go to a that place, where only I can be,
With your love in my heart, that is your gift to me.
