With an acceptance
which comes from
years of love,
we finally allow
the other to
be themselves.
Appreciating his passion
for projects,
I no longer expect him
to spend the entire evening
gazing romantically into my eyes.
Now, respecting his need
to carefully analyze data,
I don’t become depressed
that he isn’t immediately enthusiastic
about each new idea.
A new contentment surrounds me
since I have exchanged
moodily dreaming
of an ever attentive prince,
for happy appreciation of
my loving, dependable,
and supportive husband.
