A Description of Love

It started with a little flutter
At the bottom of my stomach
That rose upward to my ribs
There became a glowing ball
A little ball of golden joy
That grew and swelled and filled
Until suddenly…. Pop, it burst
Thus expelling its contents wide
A golden liquid like warm honey
Glowing with an inner light
With it touch this liquid spread
Warmth so deep and pleasant
Flowing from chest to every limb
Spreading its warmth and light
Its touch upon the skin makes
Your hairs stand up and spark
Electricity runs down your spine
And back again, twice a second
Slowly a grin creeps across your face
Creasing both cheeks and eyes
In the corner of you eye a tear
Forms to your joyous surprise
Now you’re glowing and warm
To the core and electric to the touch
You’re happy down to your toes
An aura penetrates your skin
Golden and shining from within
All this comes from a special love
Between two lovers so true
This is the feeling that I have
Whenever I look upon at you.
