Love Sonnet

My heart I ever grant to thee
From now until the end of time
Our lives ever twined shall be
Beating in perfect orchestral rhyme
I promise to hold thee in my arms
And kiss away thy daily cares
Away from any earthly charms
Precious vows answer all my prayers
And when we leave for a distant land-
That glimpse into eternity
We will venture forth hand in hand
For ever in holy matrimony
I thank thee for being at my side
My love will always be thy bride

I Love You

I love you
When you hold me tight
I love you
Through each day and night
I love you
For how you make me feel
I love you
For being so very real
I love you
For kindness in your voice
I love you
Will always be my choice
I love you
For your love and grace
I love you
For your warm embrace

A Child

Born in innocence
The love of a child
Seed falling to earth
To germinate and grow
Becoming citizens of this
World, each babe that is born
Carries a light and a love
Holy blessings bestow
Keeping company with
Truth and liberty, to
Brighten our world

Thank you for your kind
Words of support, I will reply
To each one a bit later

Forbidden Love

I want to be with you
When you wake up
And when you go to sleep
I want to be the one you hold
When you laugh
And when you cry
I want to be with you
When you mourn
And when you love
I want to be the one you love
When you grow old
And when you die
I want to be with you

Burning House

My house is on fire
Have nowhere to go
My home is in flames
The timbers are low
I look to the east
I look to the west
And feel my heart ache
My soul’s treasure chest
Fruits of my faith
Are what I would take
Hope, faith, joy, love and peace
Everything else I could forsake

Stolen Embrace

image

My senses ignite
At thoughts of your
Scent and delight
At memories of
Your closeness of
Being, I remember
Your voice, your
Hands, your eyes
And I know I will
Never forget you
Lifting me off my
Feet in a stolen
Embrace

Heart of You

I love the way
You look at me
I love the way
You make me feel
I love the blue
Of your eyes as
They melt into the
Heart of me
And I love the very
Heart of you

Skies of Blue

Skies of Blue

Journey with me as we allow
The road to transport us
From fields of green
All the way to the foot
Of skies of blue –
Heavens of eternity

Melting Pools

image

The blue of your eyes lock
Into my soul’s deep need
Submitting to the embrace of
Your love, I hold the moment
Within the confines of my heart
As I welcome the memories
That are being born when your
Eyes so gentle, connect with mine

What is Love?

Love is the respect you feel
When treated with respect

Love is the warmth inside
When treated with desire

Love is the hope you feel
When treated with dignity

Love is the self-esteem that builds
When accepted for the self within

Love is the humility you feel
When treated better than you act

Love is the love you feel
When loved for who you are
