My Secret To Happiness

The honeymoon is not over embracing love
by capturing the core of every fiber,
weaving tender hearts tighter and tighter.
We are touched with sweet melting honey
that echoes of our love through golden rings
in strife and funny rainy or sunny days.

I can't help those fluttery butterflies’ feelings
falling in love with you over and over again.

The honeymoon is not over embracing love
stealing each other's heart as we forged
honesty, hope, faith, courage, and forgiveness.
Tender dreamy, gentle kisses that flow
and bend of our boughs, as seasons come and go
with shadows of never ending days.
Two souls dance suspended in the night.

I can't help those fluttery butterflies’ feelings
falling in love with you over and over again.

The honeymoon is not over embracing love
as memories, moments to remember
time when life had been pleasant and strong
a time when loving bloomed our course to our future.
Woven on a web of everlasting dreams
in our golden days we give to each other our hearts.

I can't help those fluttery butterflies’ feelings
falling in love with you over and over again.

Hello Eve!! Belated congratulations on the POTD honor here for the this quite wondrous Lyric. (I hope you were Number One in this contest with this Lyric!!) The words, the thoughts, the emotions are all there in this joy to read. I really liked the last two verses at the end of Stanza Five: "Woven on a web of everlasting dreams / in our golden days we give to each other our hearts." Superbly expressed!! What else can I say, except: IT'S A FAVE!! Best Always, Gary
