I wrote this poem because I cherish the name of my wife, Kimberly, and its meaning. The latter part "LY" has the idea of "a meadow". The first part, "KIMBER" means "a royal fortress" I love it because I imagine a traveler in medieval times on a journey to some castle in a distant region. I think about how that he would come to a clearing and see his destination, and would rush across the plain towards the beautiful castle, only to be captured by the beauty of the grassland where he was passing.
Often in life, we miss out on the nearby treasures while seeking far distant imaginations of what we would find for ourselves. Ten years ago, God slowed me down just long enough to find the sweetest and most kindhearted woman that I could find to be my wife. I married Kimberly Maddox and she has become my place of rest from the busy world around us. She is MY MEADOW
