If only I said

Douglas H. Mc Clintock 1934 (Sarnia, Ontario)



If only I said, I love you everyday.
If only I said, I kissed you everyday.
If only I said, You look pretty in that dress.
If only I said, That was a delicious meal.
If only I said, I remember holding  hands with you.
If only I said, I am sorry for doing that.
If only I said, Thanks for loving me.
If only I said, I love how you smell.
If only I said, Reading the Bible and praying together..
If only I said, Your needlecraft and crocheting was great.
If only I said, Thanks for keeping our home so nice.
If only I said, I love it when you put on a kerchief. .
If only I said, Thanks for wearing the fancy black nylons.
If only I said, If only I said.
