Love Letter of Bliss

Recipient of love letters 
with bliss-delight
I appreciate messages 
in their passionate earnestness.
Here am I nostalgic 
of affectionate expressions 
...worth sharing especially with a special friend 
awaiting her wondrous altar date.*

…You’re the beauteous Eve
who completes my ribs
as it finds belongingness in yours
toward one flesh partnership of cleaving and clinging 
marked by endearing engagement's blessed union:
sublime --- beyond mere romance...

…You’re the virtuous woman
of the Scriptures’ Proverbs 31:10-31
whom I want to exchange 
my “till death do us part” 
along sweet assertion
marked by faithfulness' assurance;

Most especially, 
you’re the bride
I have earnestly prayed
to be espoused with
to nourish and cherish, 
according to Ephesians 5:29.

God be thanked for His love that brings into realities’ fruition
genuine love poems, surpassing fantasies’ pleasure…
Since He is the perfect Lover, the wondrous Source of true love**
the impeccable Author of love poetry that’s life-transforming!

**1John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
