He held me through the maelstrom of my heart strong arms of comfort, chest of solid might with soothing touch the healing he did start he brought the rays of sun to warm my night the whispers in my ear were tender, sweet they breathed into my soul his courage fierce he vanquished all the cold with flaming heat and placed his balm on wounds that lies did pierce my heart he touched and made to beat once more my eyes he kissed with truth, and I could see On lips his love with kisses he did pour he arms a haven that was meant to be To him who loves me with such constant care my dreams, my soul and body I will bare Eileen

You can do no wrong when you write romance and with the passion that you have by the ton. This sonnet is amazing and its message bold and clear. Rhyme and rhythm simply superb. Truly top notch and excellent writing my friend. Adding this gem to my fav list!

A love that carries caress of courage, smooth hope on lips the heart happily sips...with such grace of gifts rare and fine, his touch is yours truly sublime...this poem is so rich in affectionate appreciation Eileen, "And placed his balm on wounds lies did pierce..." awesome romance! The final two lines are so genuine with love...J.A.B.

The eagle has landed....hello, Justin. It takes a strong strong man to love a woman when she is lost in pain. That kind of a man is a stronghold for his woman. A man's arms of love is the most comforting place to be. Such a man deserve too taste her ecstasy. Thanks for visiting, my Eagle....

The quotes and your lovely sonnet touched my inner self; we're not talking of passion or the usual romance...here is affection, belief, reliance...not necessarily based on the physical. I love it. hugs // paul

Thanks, Paul....I'm about to post a poem about the importance of love, romance, and passion. Without it....life is bleak and unlivable. Thank you for your visit to my poem, and your comment about my avatar. Hugs

Thanks, sweetie. I'm really discourage and I'm about to write a scorcher for those who find romance and sensuality....not to their taste. It really unnerves me. Keep looking....another fifteen or so minutes.
