The Leaking Eye

*Shell*
All it took was the mention surprise,
To bring that sparkle back into your eyes.

To bring the light back into your day,
As you venture back home from you week away.

The thrill I had that I bought it on my own,
Working so hard to make you proud of what I do.

As you unload your work week from your car it arrives,
Curiously you snoop and ponder on what could be inside.

I peak my head out with a big smile,
As I make you wait a little while.

You open the box and view its contents,
with the biggest smile I have ever seen.

You lean over and give me a tender kiss,
that meant the world to me on so many different levels.

So proud, feeling accomplished I knew,
I have finally come out of the dark and into the light....

For I made you beam like a sun ray on a mirror,
As satisfaction ran through my veins.

I could see a silent tear in your eye,
I knew how much this meant to you dear love.

I got it for you,
For you are my gift sent from the almighty above.

I love you.
