No Greater Feeling

There's no greater feeling For a man to be Deeply, Spiritually, Wholeheartedly Loved and cherished By a good woman That comes home To him The nearness of her Comforting. The love in her eyes, Penetrating. The sound of her voice, Reassuring. Her nurturing hands On his skin, Soothing. The softness of her kiss Upon his lips and brow, Sublime. Her radiant light On his spirit, Transformative. When a woman Genuinely loves a man, Like mine loves me, He couldn't be more in luck, For she's but a needle In a haystack.
