From Rachel To Ross

It's not your conversation That keeps me entertained But rather the way you look at me That makes me feel sustained It's the curve of your lips And the curl of your hair T'is all of the little things That makes me stop and stare It's not your intelligence That drew me close to you It is not your sense of humor That has thrown me all askew It's the touch of your hand And the thoughts in your head T'is all of the little things The things that don't get said It's not your vivid history That's made me fall in love It's not your comprehension Of the world or what's above It is your soft temperament And the way you smile at me T'is all of the little things That make me want to see It's not when we are talking That I want to know some more It is not whilst you teach me I learn what I'm looking for It is the time we spend alone And the time in utter silence T'is all of the little things That form a strong alliance It's not the job you work so hard That shows your true commitment It's not your crazy habits That give me great fulfillment It is the way you use your hands And the way I have been chosen T'is all of the little things Why I know silence is golden.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
