Leah Russell Poet Verse

Because I Am Loved By You

The moon lights up the night,
The sun lights up the day,
You light up my fire,
In every single way;

The clouds give us rain,
The trees give us shade,
You give my life meaning,
Not a second of it would I trade;

A house puts a roof over our heads,
A car gets us where we need to go,
You give me security,
For that I love you so;

You can buy things at a store,
You can sell them there too,
When it comes to the one thing you can't buy "LOVE",
I'm the richest in the world because i'm loved by you, 

                     Leah Jo Howes
                          2008
