LOVING YOU
MARGARET, you are the girl I love.
You are the only one I think of.
My feelings for you are grand,
The test of time, they will stand.
If you love me with all your heart,
I promise you, we will never part.
When I look at you, my head starts to spin.
It is your ever-lasting love, I want to win.
I love seeing and speaking to you every day.
I've never loved anyone else this way.
I love to kiss and hold you tight
Every summer day and winter night.
When I touch you, I feel like I'm on fire.
My only wish is to fulfil your every desire.
I love you in the day time and I love you at night,
You are the first girl I ever loved with all my might.
MARGARET, I want to be with you all the time.
For you, the highest mountain I would climb.
In closing, I would like to say,
Please be mine each and every day.
Dec. 20, 1968
MARGARET, MY SUNSHINE
The sun is the brightest thing I know.
Everything is brightened by its glow.
It's brighter than all the sparkling stones.
Its light illuminates all unknowns,
Even when it's not visible on cloudy days,
To shine again, the sun will find ways.
I know it's there behind the clouds
Like a ship's mast hidden by shrouds.
However, the sun is not the brightest object any more
For I met a gorgeous girl whom I adore.
The love I have for MARGARET is real
And that is sincerely the way I feel.
Now she's my sun and she's my life,
Some day I hope to make her my wife.
The 21st Of January, 1969
I LOVE YOU
I have a heart which beats for you only,
I beg you, MARGARET, don't ever leave me lonely.
Loving you is my heart's delight,
Love me too and all will be alright.
Over the past six months I have been very glad.
Often I get silly, but I don't mean to make you sad.
Vow that you'll leave me never!
Vow that you'll be mine forever!
Every day, every hour, every minute you're on my mind.
Every second, every moment, every instant I want you to be mine.
You, MARGARET, are that very special one.
You are the super jackpot I have won.
Often I've felt sad and lonely because you're not near.
Over and over I whisper your name hoping you'll hear.
Under your spell I fall when you are around.
Up in heaven among angels I have myself found.
The 19th Of March, 1969
EASTER SUNDAY AFTER-THOUGHTS
MARGARET, I hope you had a Happy Easter Day,
And enjoyed every moment of your holiday.
As for me, I had a wonderful time,
Being with you was really quite sublime.
Spending time with my family and me,
And being together.
That's the way I hope it will always be,
Forever and forever.
MARGARET, this past week I've seen you,
Like I never did before,
I never felt this close to you.
You are the one that I adore.
I wish for more times like this,
As it thrills me when we kiss.
My heart only for you, it yearns,
And different ways to love you, it learns.
The 26th Of April, 1969
LOVE AND MISERY
Love is having someone.
Love is a nightingale's melodious song.
Love is a terrific prize you've won.
Love is the girl for whom you long.
Misery is when you're lonely.
Misery is when you are poor and hungry.
Misery is when you lose your one and only.
Misery is when you are feeling sad or angry.
These two emotions are never together.
Ideally, they don't go hand in hand.
One is different from the other,
And love's the one you cannot bend.
I am a very lucky soul,
Because during my life, I've known love
And always placed it above all,
Even higher than the stars above.
I am especially happy now,
Because I love you so much.
I love you, MARGARET, and “how!”
And yearn for your gentle touch.
The 1st Of May, 1969
THE ONE I ADORE
MARGARET is the girl of my dreams,
I love her madly --- so it seems.
Never have I loved like this before,
And I know it'll last for ever more.
I love this girl with all my heart,
And not a little or in part.
The love I feel for her is in great supply,
She makes me feel like a very lucky guy.
She has blond hair and blue eyes,
And a gorgeous look which satisfies.
Her voice and gestures are quite charming,
She's warm, considerate and loving.
She's the most wonderful person I've ever met,
So rightly, I consider her my loving pet.
MARGARET is not just a little cutie,
She is blessed with all kinds of grace and beauty.
I am so lucky to love her like this.
She loves me too, so we cannot miss.
The love I feel for her is as big as the sky.
I know love like this will never die.
The 4th Of May, 1969
LOVE SONG
If the love I feel for you is a song,
I hope I never stop singing.
The bond between us is so strong,
I often hear bells of joy ringing.
My love for you is so deep and real.
Ever since I met you, it's only happiness I feel.
If the love I have for you is a dream,
MARGARET, I hope I never awaken.
If you stop loving me my heart will scream
Because your charms have me as a slave taken.
My love for you is pure and true.
My heart beats for only you!
The 21st Of July, 1969
NO ONE ELSE BUT YOU
Red is different from blue,
In my heart there's only you.
Day is bright; night is dark,
My love for you, heavenly angels hark.
Black is black; white is white,
I adore you with all my might.
A brunette is different from a blonde,
Of you, my dear, I am very fond.
Lemons are sour; honey is sweet,
Your love makes my heart beat.
Spiders are scary; butterflies are nice,
Your charms and beauty will always entice.
Some are cruel; some are kind,
You are constantly on my mind.
Some people hate; some people love,
You're more special than the stars above.
Summers are hot; winters are cold.
To me, you're more precious than gold.
Some things are old; some things are new,
MARGARET, there's no else but you!
The 29th Of July, 1969

True love is fine.
True love is sure.
True love's divine.
True love is ever-lasting.
True love is wonderful.
True love is flabbergasting.

I love you to the length and depth my heart can reach.
The love I feel for you, no one can impeach.
My love for you goes on and is without bound,
I believe you're the lucky star I have found.
Even if problems arise between us two,
My heart will continue to beat for only you.
MARGARET, if our love encounters a difficult time,
I promise you, I'll do anything to make it all sublime.
I swear to love you deeply until my last breath,
God willing, I'll continue loving you even after death.
I will work hard to overcome any strife,
So that you have true happiness in your life,
The 10th Of August, 1969
MISSING YOU
The day you left was a black day for me,
Your departure made me quite sad and blue.
I wonder what you're doing and where you could be,
MARGARET my love, it's true, I miss you.
Since you left and went away,
I spend all my time thinking of you,
I can't wait for your return on Saturday,
Until then I promise to be true.
I never thought I could love so much,
I hope you think of me where you are.
O, dear, I yearn so much for your touch!
And wish you were not so far.
I hope you are enjoying your trip to the U. S. A.,
But I also hope you're thinking of ME.
Since you left, I miss you in every possible way,
Only on your return, will I happy BE!.
O, MARGARET, I miss you so!
I know I can't do without you.
When you come back to me, all will glow.
I expect you miss me a little too.
I can't wait until you're back again,
I'm counting the hours till you return.
When you come back, I'll be happy then,
Until then, for your tender love I yearn.
The 30th Of August, 1969
THINKING OF YOU MY LOVE
As I lie here in repose,
Wrapped in my thoughts so deep,
Whom do I think of, do you suppose?
But you, who are so wonderful and sweet.
I think of how luck has shined on me,
By sending you into my life,
And how extremely happy I would be,
If you were ever to become my wife.
You're on my mind while I'm awake,
I dream of you while I sleep,
I hope I never make you feel a heart ache,
Because the love I have for you is deep.
No matter where I am, you are always on my mind,
Each day I love you more and more.
MARGARET, please look and you will find
That in my heart, there's love for you galore!
MARGARET, you are the girl in my heart,
That's right, no one else but you,
To me, you are a classic work of art,
That's why the love I feel for you is true.
The 19th Of September, 1969
LOVING WISHES
Loving wishes from the bottom of my heart.

You are a very special girl
And I love you very dearly,
You send me into a dizzy whirl,

To make you glad, I'll always try,
So please be happy and so will I.

MARGARET, MY BELOVED
My beloved one is sweet,
My beloved one is kind,
My beloved one's a treat,
She is always on my mind!
She is my breath,
She is my life,
I will love her until death,
One day she'll be my wife!
I adore her above all else,
For her, my love does flow,
My love for her is quite immense,
And will continue to grow!
My love will live forever and after I am gone,
It will live in the water, in the air and in the trees,
And when my sweet, sweet life is done,
Her name--MARGARET--will be whispered in the breeze!
The 3rd Of November, 1969
THE GIFT OF LOVE
I wish I could buy you diamonds and pearls,
For on your birthday, I want you to be full of joy.
MARGARET, you are the most special of all girls
And because you're mine, I'm a very lucky boy.
If poetic words could substitute for a gift,
I would be a very happy guy,
For it is my financial situation and not thrift
That precious stones for you, I cannot buy.
If my love could take the place of all these things,
I would be deliriously happy knowing
That your heart for only me, it sings
And I hope my deep love for you is showing.
I wish I could buy you furs and rare perfumes
Because you deserve the very best.
Please let our hearts sing beautiful tunes,
And our love will take care of the rest.
The 3rd Of November, 1969
O, WONDERFUL YOU!
The sun's warm, illuminating brightness,
Could never outshine my deep love.
So I say to you in all frankness,
I love you more than there are stars above.
The nightingale's melodious song,
Will never out-sing the joy that's in me.
When you offer me your caresses for which I long,
I am crazy for you, don't you see?
The highest mountains cannot out-reach my love divine,
Nor is the largest ocean wetter.
MARGARET, when you're near me, I feel fine,
And cannot think of anything better.
You are the most wonderful girl I know,
I will always love you and be true,
My obvious adoration of you must show.
For me, there is no else but you!
The 20th Of November, 1969
KEEP HER!
Lord, I've never loved like this before,
Or felt for anyone deeper.
So please, watch over the one that I adore,
And always healthy and happy keep her!
Send your vigilant angels to watch over she,
And advise her as to what to do and feel.
I pray that universally praised will your name be,
And everyone will willingly before you kneel!
I never asked you for anything before,
So please do this one thing for me,
For I love MARGARET than my life more,
Only when she's safe, will I happy be!
The 25th Of November, 1969
DEEP LOVE
Roses are red, I know
And violets are blue.
Because I love you so,
I'd do anything for you!
The sky is blue
And the sea is great.
I adore only you
For you are first rate!
The sun is bright
And the night is dark.
Everything will be all right,
Our love has hit the mark!
Nature's trees are high,
And the grass is long.
Believe me I don't lie,
My love for you is strong!
However, none of these things
Measures up to my love,
MARGARET, for you my heart sings,
You are the only one I think of!
The 30th Of November, 1969

And it will live forever.

I'll do anything to make you glad.
This love I have is something new,
I know I am a very lucky lad!
Say you're mine and love me truly,
Be true to me day and night.
For then I will be happy surely,
And love you with all my might!
I constantly long for your touch and kisses,
Remember true lovers are not many but a few,
Very glad am I to fulfill all your wishes.
Love me, and I promise to be true to you!

TO MY VALENTINE
Somehow, to say “I love you” is not enough,
So I search for words to express this love of mine.
Your lovely face makes me smile and laugh,
Because you are my loving Valentine!
You are like a precious jewel,
And I adore you very much.
For your love, I'd fight any duel,
Become your loving slave and such.
I wish a “Happy Valentine's Day” to you,
And many more to come.
MARGARET, my love for you is true,
Knowing you're mine, makes me sing and hum.
The 14th Of February, 1970
TILL THERE WAS YOU
There was no light in my life,
Till there was you!
Life, for me was an undesired strife
Which made me sad and blue.
When you appeared the sun shined on me.
Heaven and its stars smiled down.
I never knew what real happiness could be,
I often wore a sorry frown.
But when I first looked at your enchanting face,
I knew you were the one I'd been waiting for.
Your wonderful charms and beautiful face,
Made you, MARGARET, the one that I adore.
I'm glad that we are now as one,
Loving you made me forget I was lonely.
I'm flattered that I have your heart won.
You can be sure I love you only!
Life for me was an undesired strife
Which made me sad and blue.
There was no light in my life,
Till there was you!
The 21st Of April, 1970
THIS FEELING*
* Margaret's Favourite
* Presented On Our Wedding Day --- Saturday, August 15, 1970
This want of you is like no other thing.
It binds my soul with a golden ring.
It guides my actions and all I do ---
This want of you!
It flashes on me with the waking sun.
It creeps up on me when the day is done.
It pounds at my heart the long night through ---
This want of you!
It sighs within me with the misting skies,
O, every day within my heart it cries!.
Always the same feeling, yet each moment new ---
This want of you!
Mad with desire and aching with despair,
My heart calls out to you, my MARGARET, fair.
This exquisite feeling is like none I ever knew ---
This want of you!
The 15th Of August, 1970
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!
MARGARET, you are my gorgeous loving honey.
So let us celebrate our FIRST--of-many-to-come--Anni.
I wish you love and happiness forever
And pray that nothing separates--ever!
This past year has been the best I've ever had,
Although sometimes I get frown-y and sad,
In my mind, I can hear your name.
I love you and I know you feel the same.
I will try to fulfill all your wishes and desires,
For in my heart you have started "love fires."
The very thought of you makes my toes curl.
That's why I want to make you a very happy girl.
You make me feel like a very lucky guy.
That is not an idle compliment or lie!
Today we celebrate our special anniversary!
And that makes me super-happy--Yes-sir-y!

MARGARET, you are very special—really, one of a kind!
Good thoughts and wishes for you are always on my mind.

Easter, 1990
TOGETHER ALWAYS
Dear MARGARET, I will never forget
That day at bowling when we met.
When our paths crossed back in September, 1968,
The attraction between us was undeniably great!
Your loveliness made my heart take flight,
Your charms filled my soul with much delight.
Soon after you came into my life,
I determined to make you my wife.
In nineteen-seventy, we were married,
All our dreams to raise a family we carried.
In fifty years together, we shared many ups and downs.
I recollect the smiles and have forgotten all the frowns.
Having fulfilled our hopes and every dream,
We're content to flow down life's winding stream.
As I think back to our bowling alley fling,
I know I would not change a single thing.
Good health and joy in our remaining years.
The love we share will conquer all our fears.
The 15th Of August, 2020
GONE FROM ME
I can't believe you are gone from me, my dearest MARGARET.
Your death has left me in a state of perpetual regret.
Although I did all I could for you and more,
The virulent pain left your whole body sore.
You fought against overwhelming odds with great dignity.
Now you're able to rest peacefully for all eternity.
I think of you constantly and cry my eyes out.
You are my everything! Of that there is no doubt!
Alas, this part of our journey has ended,
And my whole world has been upended.
Your passing has affected me in a most profound way!
MARGARET, my love, I miss you more than I can say.
“Together Always” has been our life-long vow.
We will meet again, I promise you that now!
When that day comes, we'll be together,
Not just always, but forever and forever!
All my love, Nick

REST IN PEACE, MY MARGARET DEAR!
(Adapted)
MARGARET, I saw you getting tired
When a cure was not to be.
Still, I closed my arms around you
And whispered, "Please don't leave me."
For months, I observed you sinking,
And watched you fade away.
My heart was almost broken,
You fought so hard to stay.
You did not deserve what you went through
It was obvious, you needed rest.
I love you with all my heart,
To me, you'll always be the best!
I adore you and I miss you.
Rest In Peace, My MARGARET Dear!
We will meet again someday,
To me, that is quite clear!
All My Love, Nick
