A Love Story

A LOVE STORY I Love you more with each new day, I love you so in every way, I’ve loved you since that night We met, to be together seemed so right. I love you far beyond the bright blue sky, I love you when the morn is nigh, I love you when you hold my hand, And feel you close to where I stand, I love your kind considerate ways, You’re like the sun’s most gentle rays, I love the times when we’re alone, And cuddle up when we are home, I love it when we’re at a party, And hear your laugh so warm and hearty, I love it when you hold me tight, With all your strength, and love and might, I love you whether near or far, I love you phoning from your car, I love to listen to your voice, At any time of your own choice, I love you, Winter, Summer, Autumn, Spring, I’ll always be there when you ring. I love the magic of your caring, And look forward to a life of sharing, To you I pledge my darling heart, That this is only just the start, And so I’ve bared to you my soul, And long to fill my future role, Of partner, friend and wife, For all, of my remaining life.

Thank you Bobby for such a lovely comment - we got married later in life, both divorced and both had a wonderful son. We used to go out in our early twenties, but somehow drifted apart and met up again and got married almost immediately - if you read my poem in December 2000 we said I do I everything will fall into place. Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

Words cannot express how this poem made me feel. I have the privilege of knowing your love and soul mate Elias and the wonderful relationship you have. I'm also one of the lucky ones to have found mine. Another to add to my favourite list. Kim

A soul in harmony "baring" her very fine inner self to an ardent reader in the utmost beauty and veneration! The love within you, dearest Jennifer, did arrange your words in an exquisite beauty.. it did compose the tone in a melodious music.. a poem of Love, Life and Harmony humming in a cheerful tune.. Souls of Beauty would ever keep the flame of love within inflamed and kindled.. that's the essence of their very existence.. a FAV and a gem! My love and hugs dearest. Be blessed always.

In singing about the Book of Life, the Greek chanteuse, Nana Mouskouri noted that. "once a page is read, all but love is dead". But that raises the question if the love of your life is re-born, will your love retard his development/acceptance of his new life? Best to enjoy love whilst it lives! Aloha! Rico

That is almost an impossible question to answer as there are too many ifs and buts. So what you say Rico, enjoy love whilst it lives is absolutely true. I have indirectly understood that your wife has passed (if I am wrong a million trillion apologies)but her love for you still lives on and yours for her. Best wishes my dear friend. Yasou, Jennifer.

Could be beautiful greeting card, already a beautiful poem. The lines float on uplifting winds of joy and the reader is delightfully transported to romantic love's world. I hope this is to someone from you, someone worthy or reciprocates and would love to receive such poems frequently! All the best ... CayCay

Hi Cay Cay, It was to my husband on our engagement 18 years ago. and he does reciprocate. I think our relationship is different because we were going out years ago and then drifted apart, and when we got together again years later were immediately ready to say I do. if you read my poem in December 2000 we said I do I write of our romance. xoxo and best wishes, Jennifer
