Notes About The Poem

I need to say you are loved

To you who have
never received a love letter ~

Here is the one I write to you
so you may hold it in your hands
and carry it next to your heart.

You are a kind soul and have bestowed love,
you've seen beauty where there were clouds
~ to you I offer gentleness as a bouquet.

My thoughts are genuine and caring,
my heart goes out to you because
you deserve the gift of tenderness.

You deserve to be told daily
how beautiful you are inside out and
how you make this world a better place.

That’s lovely Line, I’ve never received a love letter, though I’ve written a few in my time, as a request from another, to gift to their spouse or lover. Congratulations on receiving the honour of poem of the day… Beryl
