Bottled Love

If I could bottle the love you show me

I would take it to the ends of the Earth,

to allow a Small amount to go free

Releasing love, giving peace, to rebirth

Every nation, all countries, state to state

Spreading that loving feeling you expel

from your heart, to generously create 

Peace on Earth, Everone under your spell,

If You wrote poems of adoration

I would send them to everyone on Earth 

Never mind colour, race, or religion 

Telling all how so much to me your worth

You are my soul mate, my rock, my best friend

My love for you will last until my end

Isn't amazing, how the love of just ONE special person, can spread so far, so wide, like a ripple effect. This is a beautiful loving sonnet, Roy.

Hiya Roy, I do like this one :) I find the thought of the bottle passing through the land and shore very relaxing, whilst spreading hopefulness & joy. I can see that your heart holds a very special place for your loved one, lovely words and sentiment.
