He doesn't have a red cape
Nor a mask to disguise
He's a high energy creator
Which comes as no surprise
Starting from the ground up
With truckloads of supplies
He handled all the challenges
And sometimes improvised
At long last our home's complete
You think he'd just relax
But now he begins to shape the land
Making pathways to the max

Just about 18 months ago we made a huge move
350 miles south to live near Mt Shasta, California.
It's been a wonderful experience and a time of growth
for both of us. I have thoroughly enjoyed
watching my best friend have the time of his life
creating our wonderful home that we can share
with friends and family for years to come.

smiles...your best friend...def sounds like a hero to me...and sounds like he is having fun along the way...and he is in costume so you get the bonus points too...ha
ReplyDeleteI know you are both very happy in your new home too. Now I know your hubby is more than happy. Excellent.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific day honey. Big hugs. ☺
That was wonderful! Every man likes to know he is his wife's hero. I'm sure the outside will look great with those paths.
ReplyDeleteA superman to me. Everyone needs a hero in their lives. Wonderful poem
ReplyDeleteI loved that! What a great tribute. :)
ReplyDeleteMoving is a heroic deed in and of itself... so glad you like it!
ReplyDeleteThat was so sweet. Men want to be heroes for sure. sandie
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to both of you! He is super, indeed.
ReplyDeleteYour man is lucky to be so appreciated. You live in a beautiful part of the country and I envy you.
ReplyDeleteHe is indeed a super-hero. I am sure the feats he has accomplished have not been easy. An enjoyable poem to read.
ReplyDeleteNeat tribute! And what a great experience that must be. Such lovely country there.
ReplyDeleteYes, the love quotient is left out of most hero worship; and this poem has love in spades & hearts. Some of us have the mechanical aptitude of a fruit gnat, so I always applaud the person who can build or fix things.
ReplyDeleteLook .. up in the sky .. it's a bird, it's a plane .. no it's Russell!!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful to be on this new adventure with your hero. He's really thrown his heart into it. Many blessings to you both in your lovely new home.
ReplyDeletePlease let me know if you can visit without impediment.
ReplyDeleteWe look forward to making new a home, too (actually plopping down a double-wide on land)
How wonderful! My grandparents used to live in Redding, so I know exactly where Mt. Shasta is :-) Congratulations on your home and finding that perfect partner--you can see the goodness in his smile :-)
ReplyDeleteThis huge task must have needed superhuman strength and perseverance ... nothing stresses human or marriage more than a move AND a construction project! I think you both must have superhuman tendencies!
ReplyDeleteWonderful rhyme and tribute. Sounds like a dream come true. Always admire a man who can build and fix. That is my kind of hero!
ReplyDeleteThe energy near Mt. Shasta must be stupendous. Glad you have a super hero to build your home there.
