Reminders of Love

reminders of love

The smell of a cigar 
Its tobacco so good
Reminds me of my Tad
When he smoked after food.

The sound of the sea
When it  rushes near
You can hear the strength
Fills u with fear

But the love that you have
Of nature as a whole
Overides that fear
Deep within your soul

Your love of food
Cooked to perfection
Steaks so rare
No toughness detected

A dish of pavlova
With raspberries and cream
Meringue so crisp
But with marshmallow within.

The warmth of those arms
That mean so much
The petal like kisses
That fill you with love.

Love neednt cost a lot
Nothing is taboo
You need to open your eyes
Look about you 

Cos love is all around
For one and all
All we have to do
Is listen to natures call.

To Look  without seeing
Is really a sin
To touch without feeling
Means no love within

So open your heart
Let the love flow
So look and feel
Make yourself glow

To love is to remember
Your family and friends
Whose love for each other
Have no ends.

This writing needs a few touch-ups, but it is overall an entertaining read.
