Love Poem - To Life

How do I love thee...like sparkling diamonds that promise undying magnificence, a sky an intricate lace gilded with stars at night, pulling my soul into depths of wonderment. How do I love thee...like a garden in spring, flowers and vines cascading in riotous profusion, a fountain splashing rainbows into its pool - paradise blowing magic in the air. How do I love thee... like a newborn child asleep in its cradle, a smile of innocence tugging the corners of its mouth, sweet, heart-breaking. One wishes the moment will pause forever. How do I love thee...like early snow falling gently, covering drabness on a stretch of dusty highway, wrapping bare trees in majestic white and elegance and distant mountains looming in dreamy silence. I could go on chanting and extolling praises of what life offers to those who seek and find the beauty, the marvels, the miracles, the enchantment - all these around us - and more. @jjote 022221
