Premiere Contest WinnerI Only Live To Love You

I only live to love you and be by your side To burn in the flame of love's fire Touch and feel your passion's fervor Supping it to my heart's desire. I only live to love you and be by your side To feel your body's each breath and pulse Peer into those glowing panther eyes And jump into their depths on an impulse. I only live to love you and be by your side To feel like a babe in its mother's arms To forget life's tumult and tussle Safely cocooned from all gales and storms. I only live to love you and be by your side To bloom and blossom on your way Like a mist jeweled red, red rose Never to be cruelly plucked away. I only live to love you and by your side Like a crooning, brooding dove My body snuggled close to you To be lost in the sonata of love!

Back with Huge congrats for this exquisite poem Valsa. I knew it was a winner when I first read it and I have been back a few more time to read it again. Well done. Valsa, while I have your attention, I was thinking, there must be so many wonderful places in India that we know little about. Would love to read yours and Vijay's poetry about them. Just a thought. <3

Thank you so much Wendy for your repeated visits to my my poem and your uplifting comments. Your suggestion, I shall try to take into account. There are no poems written about any place in India as such. Let me try.

The whole range of your verse, Valsa, is saturated with emotions that come out of your heart. A lovely poem on love! The soothing tenor was quite enjoyable. Because of love, we are able to weather numerous storms and continue to blossom throughout the span of time.

Beautiful dear Valsa. Reminds me of the phrase from Pride & Prejudice: Completely, Perfectly, Incandescently Happy.
