I even had to pull out one of my old CD's to make sure I was getting the words right. (This only made it worse since the reading of it on this CD is my favorite one I have ever heard.)
The words are Shakespeare sonnet 29.
I love this one. It reminds me of how lucky I am to have the wonderful life (and wife) I have. The cd I pulled out was from the old TV show Beauty and the Beast with voice work by Ron Perlman (I still love this show and this character) check out the details if you don't remember this: http://www.tv.com/beauty-and-the-beast/show/297/summary.html
SONNET 29
When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possess'd,
Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
William Shakespeare

and the rest of the bunch.
Sorry Josh and Misty I do not have a good picture of you but I still count you in the reasons my life rocks, (you make perfect spouses to the nuts you are married too.)
