Catherine is...


"Catherine is ..."


What words can say all that Catherine is to me?  How to define her?

My girlfriend?  Hardly! How wholly inadequate!

My life? My heart? My destiny?  All true, but too clichéd.

My love? My soul-mate?  That’s truth, too. Perhaps too much truth.

The star to my wandering bark?  Catherine deserves better than borrowed words, even Shakespeare’s.

Catherine is…

Everything good.

She’s the fire that banishes shadow…

bedrock and bread…

sonnets and symphonies…

shivers in the spine...

the reason I bother breathing...

a gift unasked for and unmerited…

Catherine is…

    "... more than a helper."
