The CATS out the bag

I never thought I'd see the day that Mori and Cats would exchange pleasantaries, but then I picked up this article whilst reading the papers online. Clearly the vicious cat has been tamed ......



' Romantic Steve Reid's poem to his wife has won the couple a R1000 shopping voucher.

Reid explained what inspired him to compose the prize-winning poem: "Dayle is like treasure in my life and that is why I concentrated on treasure."


Reid said that when he wrote the poem he tried to express his love for his wife in the most appropriate manner.

Giving advice to other couples, he said: "Treat your wife like a flower and she will give you perfume every day."



To my wonderful wife

It's been over 20 years since my life
has been enriched by the treasure of you.
As I think back on cameo memories,
it as if the fragrance of your gentleness
and the beauty of your smile
runs like a precious melody through my mind.

I'm so thankful for the way in which you complete me.

I've thought of words to describe you,
like dazzling, stunning and radiant.
But they seem inadequate to describe the treasure of you.

So let me consider this "hidden treasure"
The gold of your kindness and the words you speak ...
the silver of your wisdom ...
the diamonds of your strong love ...
the emerald of your eyes ...
the pearl of your skin
the ruby of your lips
and the laughter of your soul.

I am truly a man rich because of you.

Steve Reid

I actually believed the whole thing until I read the last line

Treat your wife like a flower and she will give you perfume every day."
