Notes About The Poem

We Two, Shall Love As One

Our love rests within two beating hearts, 
I love the spirit and grace resting in you,
There's nothing shall ever keep us apart,
as thirsting grass pines for morning dew. 

We shall love within each other's touch, 
with tenderness in each soothing hand. 
No need to ever say our love, tis' too much, 
or that any night is not ours to command! 

I have seen beautiful flowers in your eyes, 
and great promise in your sensual ways. 
Your sunshine permeates my longing skies 
where love and hope grace all our days. 

You speak of love in words of tenderness,
yet tis' great strength you reveal in emotion,
that flames my desire in want of your caress.
I pledge to you, my heart in fullest devotion.

In your eyes I glean that your promise will last,
and that our lives be as sweet as fine aged wine.
To your side and love, I shall ever cling fast.
I am content to know you will forever be mine.

Some nights I spend awake, watching you sleep,
whispering words of love you can't hear me say.
Tis' the gift of you that I shall treasure and keep,
nestled safely inside my heart to savor each day.
