Memorable
Moments: |
Katrina
and I were married at a very young age I
had just turn nineteen, she had just turned
18 and was just entering her final semester
of high school. NO ONE gave us a chance.
Everyone doubted that we could overcome
the obstacle of beginning a family so early.
Katrina was very introverted, and quiet.
I was (am) a true alpha male loud hot headed.
Morgan was born on June 14, 1994 just 8
days following Katrina's High School Graduation
It was a magical day being young you do
not realize at the time how special the
moment is, I just remember Morgan coming
out more beautiful than any child I had
ever seen and her mother glowing with a
light 1000 times brighter than the sun.
Our Lives forever changed and The love 2
high school sweethearts shared changed as
well. I became a provider with no real sense
of what that meant. She became a caretaker
with no real idea what that meant. Struggle
as we did we made it year after year. Both
fearing one day all the negative beliefs
Morgan was a bright spot for both of us
and a constant reminder of responsibility.
Bound and determined to give us a better
life Katrina stood behind me 100% as I embarked
on college and eventually medical school.
Katrina gave up so many things to be what
I needed when I needed it.
Kya Rae was born in 2001 during my third
year of medical school. I was the delivering
physician and What a magnificent thing that
was to be able to deliver your own child
to be part of this in such a tremendous
way I remember looking up at katrina from
the foot of the delivery bed and thinking
there has never been a more beautiful women,
or a women who has loved their husband so
much as her.
I remember countless times coming home from
far off rotations and being excited to see
the girls and Katrina and coming home to
find them in bed asleep and I would watch
them for a while all of them pale skin glowing
over the dim nightlight and feeling a calm
that warms the body to its core.
Katrina works very hard at life at mothering
as well as holding a full time job. Frazzled,
Dead tired, Exhausted she cares for me and
our girls as if she hasn't done a thing.
Constantly thinking she is so fortunate
to have us that she never realizes that
if not for her there would be no us. NO
Well mannered, lovely little girls. And
certainly no successful resident Physician.
My Graduation day this past May was a very
pride filled day for me. As I glanced at
the crowd watching everyone gaze at me in
admiration, the only thing I could think
of is How lucky I am. Beautiful wife, wonderful
children, terrific parents, and loving friends.
That moment I realized through all my doubts
and the doubts of others that God made her
for me and me for her. Born on the same
day one year apart, God set into motion
a series of events to allow our worlds to
collide and a galaxy burst into existence.
And all the things we had done and all the
joy we have shared were far greater than
anything we had given up by joining together
so young. |

Comments: |
Katrina
is my Queen And I want her to feel after
reading this that any doubt she may have
as to our future together should be laid
to rest. I pine for her daily when she is
not there. I daydream about the time we
spend alone. She is my center and I gravitate
to her as if she was a magnet and I were
metal. I want her to know that without her
I would not be the man I am. I am a father,
husband, provider, lover because of the
love we have shared. I really want to thank
her for being her and allowing me to find
myself (with a little guidance of course).

Never Ending
Desire |
|
|
Ten years, one decade,
three thousand, 652 days.
After all this time I love you so,
and I love you in so many different ways. |
My love is unconditional,
so unlike the setting sun,
because my heart will shine forever,
for me, you'll always be the one. |
We've endured so much these past ten years,
but our bonds grow stronger still,
I know I'll always love you,
and Katrina, I know I always will. |
You have blessed me
with Morgan and Kya,
and together, we are completely whole,
with you in my life I feel complete,
and I love you with all my heart, my very
soul. |
You have nothing but my admiration,
especially for your will to suffer me all
these years,
together, we've overcome our obstacles,
together, we've battled and conquered our
fears. |
We married very early,
and no one gave us a chance in hell,
you were introverted, quite quiet,
and I wasn't (can you tell?). |
Morgan quickly followed,
the most beautiful child I'd ever seen,
and your light shone like a 1000 suns,
I was the proudest father that there's ever
been. |
I remember the day being
so magical,
and being young, I didn't quite relish it
fully at the time,
but I do know that my love for you changed
forever,
and that's just one of the reasons for this
rhyme. |
Because we went from high school sweethearts,
from sweethearts to so much more,
me the provider, you the caretaker,
but neither of us truly knew the score. |
Morgan was a reminder
of our responsibility,
and you supported me one hundred per cent,
a precious love like that simply can't be
bought.
before then, I never knew what sacrifice really
meant. |
Kya Rae was born during my 3rd year of
medical school,
I was the delivering physician, honored to
be on hand,
and I remember looking at the prettiest woman
in the world,
but these are words only a delivering father
would understand. |
I remember the countless
times coming home from rotations,
and I'd find you and the girls asleep at night,
and I'd sit and watch you for ages,
being warmed to the core by you, soft in the
gentle light. |
And you do work so very hard,
a full time job and a mother to boot,
some days you're frazzled, exhausted, dead
tired,
but you still manage to look so cute. |
You care for me and
the girls like you haven't done a thing,
constantly thinking you're lucky to have us
in your life,
well, I know the girls have a brilliant mother,
and I know that I have a very wonderful wife. |
We are who we are because of you,
you're the glue that holds this ship together,
and ours is a journey that's just begun,
and it's one that will last forever. |
My graduation day, I've
never felt so proud,
I was proud of the person that I'd become,
and as I glanced at the crowd I felt so lucky,
I married a wonderful girl, a wonderful Mom. |
And I feel like I've got everything,
a beautiful wife, great children and so much
more,
I've got terrific parents, loving friends,
God,
and that's really what these words are for. |
Because we have survived
all our and other's doubts,
and we've made more music than all the world's
ever sung,
and what we've shared has been far greater,
far greater than anything we lost by marrying
young. |
I want you to know that you're my Queen,
to know simply, you are the best,
and any doubts you have about our future,
well, let me tell you, you can put those to
rest. |
Because you are my center
of the Universe,
my magnetic pole, I am pulled towards you
my love,
I am a father, a provider, a lover,
truly blessed by the heavens above. |
My desire for you is never ending,
and I think that's all I want to say,
my knees buckle, my heart pounds,
every time you flash that smile my way. |
This is my never ending
desire,
our life and our love my final role,
naturally, lasting forever and ever,
engulfing you mind, body and soul. |

"Dear Allen, I love the poem. It was exactly
what I was looking for. I love the fact that you
allow us to help in the editing it makes it feel
more special for me to be able to do this. I have

thank You. I am 100% Pleased with the results
of this and so grateful for this gift.
