Inspiration of Love

Inspiration of Love

At the moment that I saw you, 
Somehow my heart just knew
That I would have a kind of life
Filled with loving you. 

In the moment that you touched me, 
As you pulled me to your side
Your arm slipped down around my shoulder 
My heart has no place to hide. 

In the moment that I touched you, 
I felt your heartbeat beneath my hand
The look I saw there in your eyes
It spoke a language I could understand. 

The moment that you held me, 
Is somehow frozen in time 
A place of sweet contentment
Engraved in this heart of mine. 

At that moment when I felt your heart;
Gently dancing with my soul.
 
To My Late Wife
R.I.P. Shannon, I love you!

Hello, Frances! Beautiful name; I had a sister with that name. It is my late wife, who passed away 14 years ago. Most of my love poems are about my late wife. She showed me life; she was love; she taught me bliss. Best of Wishes, William
