Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

It's All About Love

It's all about love, whatever we do
It's the reason we get up each day
Everything else is to allow our love
To flourish, to give reason to say

I'll love you till the end of the earth
Until this world no longer exists
Till moon and stars no longer shine
You'll still shine through all the mist

You've always been my heart's desire
My main reason for being each day
Without your love I'd be totally lost
Like a child who has lost it's way

Guess I can't make it plainer than this
You're reason for my contentment
Without you my world would fall apart
In my heart you're the only tenant

I'll say it again, if this world disappears
We'll float through the heavens, we two
On a journey to bring our special love
To a distant star way up in the blue

Carol Eastman October 28, 2013 at 10:23 AM Dragon was over come with your love for him until I explained the poem was written for Cathie... I told him he needs to go out and find his own true love... So he ran over to give Dogasaurus a big hug... We all smiled... At 2 years old that looks like a good start... So we gave them both a walkie thru the woods... together... They romped and played... and of course tried to hide behind the trees... Silly Dragon... But definately cute... Jack Ellison October 28, 2013 at 10:40 AM It was for Dragon too... sorry I didn't make that clear! xoxox
