Romantic Love

Yesterday is tomorrow’s today
In this game of life we play

In the game of life we chance
All we have on romance

Shake the dice then let them roll
Cross the bridge then pay the toll

Make a wish upon a star
Then let them see who you are

Open your heart and face the task
Open your soul and lose your mask

Let romance light the fire
That is forever fueled by desire

Let your words be honest and true
Be the things you say and do

And most of all for the one you love
Live your life for the Lord above

Through his love your romantic endeavor
Will be blessed and last forever

And that’s a true gift by the Lord above
For nothing is better than romantic love

Great advice for those seeking or invovled in romantic endeavors as I am! I just recently asked the woman of my dreams to marry me. We have been engaged since the 3rd of August this year. She's an amazing woman, and one that I shall cherish all the days of my life. Thanks for your wonderful poem, and thanks for your comments on my "Love's Wounding Blade" poem. Take care and God Bless you? Are you "THE" Michael Jordan? Just curious...thanks!

Maybe we are dinosaurs with archaic beliefs when we think of romance and beauty in today's society, but I'd rather be a dinosaur than a robot. This was one of your best. Vince

Very beautiful words my special son. I love your poem and I am going to put it in my favorites, Love you Mike, Mom Beer Tuesday I go to pay for my new home. Then in a few weeks I will be in our new home on the range. Where the mountains and clouds will forever be in my soul and maybe I will be able to do more writing. How are the novels going Mike?

The couplet styleis written perfectly here as the rhyme didn't skip a beat. The sentiment within the words rings so very true. Write on my friend, it's always a pleasure to read such beautiful poetry. Michael
