Lin Lane Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

The Loveliness of You

Look again at your reflection in the mirror, and try to
Open your heart to the truth I am going to whisper. Your
Vision will clear to see what I behold when I look at you.
Each time you smile I see into your heart beneath the long
Lashes of your eyes. They waver from soft blue to deepest
Indigo when I touch your ivory cheek. And when I kiss the
Nape of your neck, you shiver. My love, not only with my
Eyes do I admire the loveliness of you. I hear it in your soft
Silken voice as you sing bedtime lullabies to our children. I
Stand behind you at the mirror, gazing at my beautiful wife.
