Love Affair
Lonely hand and mind have always seemed to pair,
with ditty phrase or intricate, vivid hue.
On keyboard, paper, or canvas wall, I share
to continue what a filled heart wants to view.
All of my life, I have had this love affair
that has lifted spirits when feeling quite blue.
No greater a gift with famed expectation
giving an empty soul gratification.
Ink that empresses a life with so much zeal
secures a weakened breast with real affection.
Embodies a boring light within to feel
the lone beauty of intimate perfection.
A finished product breathtaking and real
only adds to life’s ultimate collection.
Allow love affair to endure evermore
satisfying me more dearly than before.
