The Book of Love

I look
     at you
     and see
     my happiness
     and from
     your eyes
     words of 
     such tenderness
     each page we turn
     our hearts embrace
     this wondrous gift
     God's perfect Grace
     to live for love
     pray ne'er to cease
     to be as one
     Divined by peace.
