A Poem for Mare

Back in April 2009, on our 18 month anniversary of dating, my dear Boyfriend Myke gave me this poem

A Poem for Mare

Remember the times and stories of bear
You can admit that it gave you a scare
You fell for me then and noticed my stare
We went for a drink and the smell of the air
Enticed me to chance it, to take my own dare
I asked you to lunch, but that was an err
'Cuz work interfered with plans then and there
So then we rescheduled for e-ven-ing fare
More dates, and gazes and even a glare
Advanced our relations to the top of the stair
Now we're together with love and good care
Some say we make a beautiful pair
You like me to notice the look of your hair
At times you still ask me 'bout what you should wear
Finding a woman like you is rare
Agreeable, cute, charming, and fair
It's something about you whenever you're there
Sometimes I ponder and wonder just where
A wish, a desire and maybe a prayer
Has led me to you and you to my lair
Where talking and such has opened me bare
I am your man and you -- my dear Mare
