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
