Instead of Sheep

The warmth of you beside me is a blessing
Not to be taken lightly; I must be
Honest, and that will demand confessing
You still remain a miracle to me.
I think I could, perhaps, have happily
Continued without you. I was still strong.
But now that I have you, obviously,
It's better than it would be. I don't long
For anything but what I have; my song
Is all contentment, not dissatisfaction.
Life without you might not have been wrong;
But with you it is right. My merest action
Expresses joy: breathing is a prayer,
Spreading that joy into the passing air.
