Greatest of Loves

With each morning hug, nighttime releases gentle sighs Floating upon warm breezes are their whispered replies It’s a classical type of love that what we share Elizabeth Browning couldn't count the ways we care A romantic beautiful story telling how we take the lead Blending so well together we’re a rare dying breed See Romeo and Juliet’s love met an untimely death Unable to be revived not even with love’s breath Traveling through time and space, our love will endure Inside each of those seconds our motives being pure Never knowing absolute happiness until I found you We will shape futures pages with this undying love so true

References to the classics in a classic poem, my friend. So many wonderful phrases bright with imagery - "inside each of those seconds," "shape future pages," "nighttime releases gentle sighs." So fun to share the podium with you. Congratulations on your first place win! Blessings and hugs!
