My wife is much hotter
than I deserve.
She is smarter
kinder
better than me and what I have earned
in this life
and all the others I can recall.

She is greater than anything I should know
let alone possess
if I can be said to possess such a prize
like the stars
or the wind
or a riverboat.

What grace has allowed me
to attain such heights?
God knows.
I certainly don’t.
