The Keep-Poem
The keep
It seems so unlikely
That anyone would put up with me
For all this time
But you especially
Have made the keep
A home I gladly call mine
And a place I think of even when I sleep
Throughout all my mistakes
And all of our misunderstandings
You still manage to be a friend
And have what it takes
To bring me back from the brink
And be someone who will invariably
Brighten my day
Or at the very least
Put a smile on my frowning face
Your stream
Without a doubt
Is my favorite place to be
And yours
My favorite stream to see

Beautiful feelings, expressed most probably for your life partner.
It’s good to understand, what the other person is doing for you.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful poem!

A sweet serenade to she who inspires. Friendships can keep us going and familiar routine is upkeep for comfort. A good poem. Keep writing.
