Finding a Long Lost Love

If only I could feel Your magic touch That I've longed for For an eternity it seems Feel the love Pure and unaltered By time by distance A lasting forever love That has taken over My very heart and soul My whole being Oh how I wish This fervent wish Could somehow be real Suddenly You are here beside me We touch, we cry We lose ourselves in love Totally oblivious To our surrounding Totally enraptured This feeling has taken Over every part of me Why have I been blessed Why do I question it You have returned to me My dearest, my sweetest My whole world suddenly Is bright again With much more meaning I am overwhelmed You are my love of loves I'm your “Sweet Man” © Jack Ellison 2014

Errr... Dragon thinks he's the center of attention, so when he heard this... He was confused... Don't want to burn out his brain with him trying to think, so I put him in front of a mirror and read it to him again! Then he loved it! Only Dragon would think a love poem could be to himself! Honestly! Dragon! Get over yourself! On the other hand... As long as he's standing in front of the mirror... He won't be getting into trouble, and I can just kick up my feet with a second cup of coffee... Cool!

Many thanks, West Coast Richard! As I age, for some strange reason, this mushy stuff gets easier to write! Do you have any thoughts on the subject? LOL Thanks my friend!

Jack, you have captured the emotions beautifully, having been reunited with a lost love, this is exactly how I felt. You have warmed my heart. Hugs
