For You

Love is your happy face, Shows me your noble grace, Love is the breadth of you, Love is the length of you, Love abounds your whole, Love is your gentle soul, Love is your giving, Not expecting receiving, Love is the tall of you, Love is the all of you, Love is what you treasure, And give with abundant measure, Love is the sum of you, An aura and hum circles you, You must have a magic wand, For you have me spell bound, Love is your wrap around arms, Chasing away hurts or harms, You ask what should we eat, Tonight, wanting it to be a treat, Love is offering me your coat, When you think I am cold, Love is your warm embrace, Within our place and space, Love you have showered me, You show it it so naturally, Our love is forever true, Marriage vows sacred, For me and for you.

...and so much more than even that! Though there are many types of love, the best is omnicient; I think animals do it well. If only we could love like they and God do. Beautiful hopeful lines.

Hello Jennifer. I'm sorry its been so long since I turned to your page. I continue to be absent from poetry. Allow me to say I love this entry. Everything about it is poetry including voice tone flow your closen words and yes the very powerful and wonderfully executed repeated words. You executed that element appropriately. Further allow me to say this is an entry that must be read out loud with emphasis and feeling. Truly. Thank you for sharing your talent. Blessings always. (smile)

"Love is the all of you, your gentle soul." Such a wonderful thing to say. He's swept you away, in every way. This is so beautiful and romantic, and would be a perfect Valentine's Day card. You should print this out and give it to him. My best to you, my sweet friend. :) Hugs, Brandy

Hi Mike, Hubby and were going out together in our early twenties, then for some reason or other we drifted, each got married to someone else, and each got divorced unbeknown to one another. We each had a son one 17, the other 18. Twenty years later, I heard our receptionist certainly Mr. Proxenos and it was my Hubby Elias, was I married, engaged, divorced, dating he asked??? No i replied, so he said how about dinner tomorrow night. So that happened, one month later engaged and 5 months later married. We were not prepared to lose one another again. So our boys now married and us married 22 years but ever so in love. Thank you for an awesome comment my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Lasaad, thank you always for your awesome comments. Yes we holidayed at home. Running off to holiday at some crowded destination was good but as we mature those holidays get less as we would rather go during the year , when prices are lower and accommodation always available. Yes I also hope that 2023 will be a year of happiness and health, and wish the same for you my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
