The Gift

This is my gift to you
the rhythmic beating of my heart
this one and only heart
of which you are a part

This is my gift to you
the smile upon my face
and eyes that smile into yours
that make your heart race

This is my gift to you
I pledge to you all my love
and hold you in my soul forever
like a hand fits into a glove

This is my gift to you
all the colours of the rainbow that shine on a darkish day
reflected against the stoic mountains
in a very solom way

This is my gift to you
who has been the master by being
a vow of steadfastness, of love, and faith
and a vision of what we are truly seeing

This is my gift to you
the wanting of your spirit joining with mine
in a dance of ecstacy
that finds us both entwined.
