She Loved Him Because ..

   She Loved Him Because ..

 

She loved him because

he wrote

and he spoke of such

   little things ..

Those, that might have

otherwise

been missed or gone

under the radar,

   

or entirely unheard of ..

She loved him,

because he would fight

for the underdog,

the misunderstood,

the unloved

  

and likewise, deprived ..

She loved him

because, he listened

to the words of

young children and was

never afraid

to admit on occasion he

spoke to trees,

to flowers and the birds

   in his garden ..

She loved him because,

he stayed

by her side, when it all

   went wrong ..

Yet still, he reminded her

daily, time and again

  

that he still loved her both

madly and greatly

   and she, loved him too

   of course ..

After all, he was her rock

and her mountain

and she could not resist nor

deny her pride

   

   or great affections for him ..

And neither

   would have it any other way ..

What stands out here for me in this touching poem is the meaning of loyalty. A strong bond of togetherness, come what may. Isn’t this what marriage is about? Not falling at the first hurdle. Keeping promises made in wedding vows? Really strong write Neville laced with threads of tenderness. A beaut.

All the delicate and emotional expectations have been captured.

'...Yet still, he reminded her
daily, time and again...'
