I would like to send my husband a light email saying how lovely he is. A famous poem or saying would be nice?

Question

Any ideas? I'm no good at writing it myself so i'll just use someone elses....lol

Answer 1

Try this one:

"Nothing Makes a Good Wife Like a Good Husband - so you'd Better Treat Me Right and get your Hand in your Pocket!"

Answer 2

Try something brief.

e.g.   "Captured.  Still enraptured"

Answer 3

RUB A DUB DUB THANKS FOR THE GRUB!!

Answer 4

if you guys have a song together you kno send the song to him or tell him your listing to that song. and say i remember when....-you completed my life. i just wanted to say i love you and thank you for being her and for all what you have done. i wrote poems myself. love ones and you can message me for any questions i am willing to help.  

Answer 5

Make it fun and a little game...... Cheer him up a bit or something..... Example.......... Let him figure this one out......... I Y L M L I L Y N K C C O L I...... Will keep him guessing and if he gives up, tell him the answer which is   ( IF YOU LOVE ME LIKE I LOVE YOU NO KNIFE CAN CUT OUR LOVE INTO )  then he owes you a romantic night alone, if he gets it, you owe him one, either way, there is a night of romance in the works.........  

Answer 6

Shakespeare always works. Sonnets.

I like John Donne but he's rather cerebral.

Edna St Vincent Millay - great stuff.

In Japanese literature there are lost of clever short poems that evoke love and longing.

Please, please don't send him greeting card doggerel or schmaltzy poems from some teenage girl's website. This are the literary equivalent of cheap dollar store chocolate - all sugar and guar gum. You want to be sending him Belgian truffles!

Answer 7

My suggestion would be to just tell him what's in your heart. If you still need a little extra help, go on one of the many e-card sites. They've got lots of great cards. On some sites you can build your own card, with music, "postage" stamp, and other cool things. Then e-mail it to him. What I've done was a cut & paste thing with the mouse, then sent it to my printer. Since I only have a black & white printer, I got out my colored pencils and colored it in. It included the verse too, which was really wonderful. Here are some card sites to get you started:

angelwinks.net

tarasfunpages.com

dobhran.com

123giggle.com

angelhugs.net

hallmark.com

heartfeltgreets.com

flowgo.com

quickegreets.com

angeleyes2.com

castelmountains.com

dayspring.com

justsaywow.com

This should be more than enough to give you all the inspiration you'll need. Some of the above sites may no longer use these names, so keep trying until you find what you like. I got these from a booklet of e-mail addresses I've put together over the years, and haven't checked all of them to make sure they're still there. Anyway, hope you find something that gives you the inspiration you need. <*)))><

Answer 8

Send him the lyrics to a song - maybe By Your Side by Sade or Still the One by Shania Twain

Answer 9

What a lovely thought. I like this one :-)

You are the dream I dream

You are the sun I seek

You are my shade

You are the rest I sleep

You are the peace I yearn for

You are my hope, my love.

Answer 10

I saw this in a card once, and I loved it!  It could work with your husband!

Ten reaons why I love you!

I love your gentle smile,

I love your tender touch,

and I love your kisses

so very, very much

I lvoe the way you flirt with me

and the way you

laugh and tease,

I love the way

you always find

the nicest ways to please.

I love the way you cheer me up

when you find me with a frown

and always raise my spirits

when life has got me down.

I love that when I'm with you

there's nowhere else I'f rather be

but most of all I love you

for the way that you love me!

Hope this helps!!

Good luck

Answer 11

What a lovely idea! I had a look in one of my poetry books but, very unfortunately, most love poems are written for women and not for men. Such a shame. Here is one by Thomas Moore which you could use.

''My heart and lute''.

I give thee all - I can no more -

Though  poor the off'ring be;

My heart and lute are all the store

That I can bring to thee.

A lute whose gentle song reveals

The soul of love so well;

And, better far, a heart that feels

Much more than lute could tell.

Though love and song may fail, alas!

To keep life's clouds away,

At least 'twill make them lighter pass

Or gild them if they stay.

And ev'n if care, at moments, flings

A discord o'er life's happy strain,

Let love but gently touch the strings,

'Twill all be sweet again!

--------------------------------------...

There is a really beautiful poem, my favourite love poem,  It's by Micheal O'Siadhail, 1947. A poem like this one should be written for men IMO.

''While you are talking''.

While you are talking, though I seem all ears,

forgive me if you notice a stray see-through

look; on tiptoe behind the eyes' frontiers

I am spying, wondering at this mobile you.

Sometimes nurturer, praise-giver to the male,

caresser of failures, mother earth, breakwater

to my vessel, suddenly you'll appear frail-

in my arms I'll cradle you like a daughter.

Now soul pilot and I confess redemptress,

turner of new leaves, reshaper of a history;

then the spirit turns flesh - playful temptress

I untie again ribbons of your mystery.

You shift and travel as only a lover can;

one woman and all things to this one man''.

Answer 12

How do I begin to tell you how lucky I am

to have you in my life?

I'll start by saying what an honor it is

for me to be your wife.

You're my best friend in the good times

and my rock in times of sorrow.

You're the reason for sweet yesterdays

and my promise for tomorrow.

I never thought I could feel this loved

until I became your wife.

You made this year and every year

the best one of my life  

         OR

Loving you is a like a song I replay

Every three minutes and thirty seconds of every day

And every chorus was written for us to recite

Every beautiful melody of devotion every night

It's potion like this ocean that might carry me

In a wave of emotion that you asked to marry me

And every word, every second, and every third

Expresses the happiness more clearly than ever heard



And when I play them, every chord is a poem

Telling the Lord how grateful I am cause I know him

The harmonies possess a sensation similar to your caress

If you asking then I'm telling you it's yes

Stand in love, take my hand in love, God bless
