The most sacred of rooms

The most sacred of rooms
Are at the end of the longest halls
The most priceless of treasures
Are behind the strongest walls
She who is my Love
Was one such priceless treasure
Her walls were very high at first
Too high for me to measure
But I climbed those walls of hers
A little bit each day
Hoping with all my heart
That she wouldn't get away
My first glimpse of her.so beautiful
Like an Angel from above
It was then I knew I'd found her
She who is my love.

I was born June 30, 1969 at Fort Leonardwood, Missouri. (That's an Army base
for those who don't know.)
I grew up in northern Alabama. I attended Hartselle High School from whence
I graduated valedictorian in 1987. I then attended Birmingham-Southern
College where I acquired a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics May 25,
1991 (Magna Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa). Over the last fourteen years, I have
lived in New York City, ('91-'94) where I worked as an investment advisor
for Chase Manhattan Bank; Birmingham, AL, ('94-'98) where I worked as a
mortgage trader and bond analyst for Compass Bank, or as I like to call it,
"That Stupid Bank in Birmingham". During that time, I married my high school
sweetheart (How clichéd is that?). We were married 5 ½ years. We moved to
Bozeman, MT in '98 and I moved to Los Angeles in 2000. Needless to say, my
now ex-wife did not go with me. I am single now; and happier for it. The LA
thing didn't work out though. So I moved to Atlanta, GA. I stayed there
awhile, and now I am back "home" in Hartselle, AL where I am partners with
my father in an internet business.
