Never Write You Poems Anymore

I never write you poems anymore?
Not expressed in words how you I adore?
A fallacy, a falsehood, a terrible mistake,
And no never ever will I this take.

The poems I write of you for you
On paper put them? No, I not always do,
But I write them looking into your green-eyes
Or when I hear “I love you” in your warm good-byes.

Verse, meter and stanza are scribbled on my heart
As I think of you to one day’s end and another’s start.
I write you a poem when I hear you laugh
And ponder the beauty of love ever aft’.

Couplets and sonnets and villanelles and verse blank
Take form in my mind and I truly do thank

My Father in Heaven for His blessing to me;
You to have and to hold for all eternity.
