Heartbeats Chime

When something stirs within the heart
 And kindles a flame of desire
 Feelings blaze up as it starts
 As you feel the warmth of love's fire

 There is a song in heartbeats chime
 As this melody you embrace
 Compose a poem of lovely rhymes
 With words of beauty and grace

 Love's drug is a natural high
 Making you float on cloud nine
 And you'll soar in an endless sky
 With feelings you find so divine

 A beautiful gift from above
 The beauty and charm of love

What is love? Exactly this. The tender melody of a heartbeat. Yes, floating on that cloud somewhere in the beauty of the sky. Your thoughts leave me in awe. I wish to place this in my favorites. :) Brandy
