Comment from Thal1959
Very nice, D. Though the last tercets stumbles just a little. But there is nothing wrong with the repetition of "It's you" so don't let anyone grieve you if they complain it is redundant. (Just remind them of Poe's repetition of the phrase, "Quothe the Raven, nevermore.")
By the way... I watched a movie today called the Sundowners. The host who introduced the movie said that "sundowners" was an Australian term for an itinerate sheepherder. In my first 4 years in the Navy, I was assigned to Miramar Naval Air Station in San Diego, CA, (now a marine corps base) to an F-14 squadron called "The Sundowners." (VF-111) Of course, that term referred to a WW II airwing that accumulated a number of kills against the Jap Zero fighters, which of course all bore the red sun icon of Japan.
But wouldn't you know it that I will probably have a FanStory friend in Australia telling everybody that his FanStory mentor was an itinerate sheepherder for the U.S. Navy!

Hehe Thats a great story Thal. Downing the rising sun! Who would have thought that japan would become one of america's strongest allies.
I have since removed the last two lines. I never liked them

You could have just revised them a bit, but if you are OK with their removal, it's your choice.
Comment from Dean Kuch
I liked this, Dipster.
It's sweet, it's rather playful, and the rhyming works really well.
I'm not sure for the reason for the dual repetitive refrains at the bottom, however.
Other than that (which kinda threw the whole rhythm off for me a tad), this was g-r-r-r-r-r-rrrrrrreat, mate!

Comment from Sis Cat
Dip, I love the giddy excitement of your poem. It is affirmative of a bond between a loving couple who each play a vital role in sustaining the other. Your refrain "IT'S YOU" adds rhythm and emphasis. You also make an effective and creative use of the light metaphor:
"don't think I could ever turn you off
because you always turn me on"
Oh, what fun language!
Your poem is quick and creative in its turn of phrases.
Thank you for sharing.
