All Dressed Up Just for Me©

Standing in the mirror
You trim your hair
You clip your side buns
Trim your mustache
Tame your eyebrows and
Shave
A splash of cologne
Dressed in your favorite dress shirt
and best dress pants
A pair of Sunday socks
and a pair of newly shined shoes
With a smile just right
You approach me with my favorite yellow roses
You guide me out the door
Opening my car door
Politely seating me
A date for just the two of us
Knowing that the kids were
Nestled safely at home
We are finally able to enjoy a night out alone
A smile comes over me
In that moment I’m filled with such happiness
A feeling felt often, but in a different way
This time I’ll remember that you went out of your way
to make our time together even more special and
You were all dressed up just for me
Thank you for gracing my heart with your love
