I Love You Today

I LOVE YOU Today, though Your so far ; so far away My hands Caress You ; as one would the petal of a rose Gently I wipe away the morning dew drop ; in reality a tear I touch You with my smile : my beard tickles Your cheek My Heart beats to the music of LOVE, pounding to a crescendo : My baritone voice , enticed by the pounding Heart, sings I Love You My eyes see YOU everywhere, the soft clouds, the cool shade of an Oak In the sea, rushing to the beach : but mostly in my mind where beauty grows The doors are opened : yet You stay , that I may LOVE YOU TODAY “ N-- O-- W” Inspired By Barbara Gorelick’s POEM -- “NOW” Dedicated to Barbara Jean with Today’s LOVE -- Everlasting
