Love On a Pillow

If I could put love on a pillow I’d lay it on your bed for you to find there every night and rest your weary head To set your dreams in motion and make your world carefree for you to know your value for you to finally see If I could put love on a pillow there’d be no need for prose for all your pain, you’d understand that thorns protect the rose You’d wake to smiles and sunshine with kindness on your plate to know the road is long but never it’s too late

Mike, You must have found true love, I feel that it would be impossible to pen such sensitivity and passion if this was not so. Great poetry, Thank you.

"Thorns protect the rose" Yes, they do. Such a beautiful thought. So tender. *Love on a Pillow* This is so romantic and dreamy. I would never let go. Your thoughts curl gently around me and my heart. :) Brandy

How loved I would feel to have someone say such affectionate words to me. Befitting a Hallmark Valentine's Day card, Mike.
