Thanks for the advice - underwear going into bottom drawer, nightime clothes I think I'll be OK on.
I'll tweak the poem now and see if it reads better:
You ask me why I love you, I only know I do, You ask me why I married you, Because of the love so true, We now have two happy children, that fill our hearts with pride, For that I love you dearly, mother, friend and bride.
I have done poems in the past, so this is nothing too different. As regards the sex angle, I think I'll cool it and wait - we have a holiday in Mallorca in October so that may be less stressful and fit in better.
Please still come back to me on the poem and the presents - one of the nightshirts says 'I need my space', so I'm trying to acknowledge that, the other is more jockey and says 'Grumpy but gorgeous'.
