  In this world of trouble
Heartaches, sickness and strife
It’s so good to find a lady
A woman, a mother, a wife

That has so much time for others
Never asking for herself
Always looking at giving
Never wondering what’s left

As you read these words
Know them to be true
Few people can ever know
A friend as nice as you

I write these words in hope
One day you will understand
Just how much you have meant
To this silly old man

You give your time so freely
You never complain or fuss
Always there with a ear or shoulder
You never hurry or rush

There is a special place in heaven
For angels such as you
They have saved you a golden halo
And robes of golden hue

Please don’t blush or even cry
You know these words to be true
If you ever have any doubts of what I say
Just ask anyone around you.

So beautiful, sounds like a proverbs kind of woman.

More valuable than diamonds or rubies!
