What a Lover Is He....

How you wake me in the morning with sweet words
That pierces my heart softly as gentle swords
We make love with our hearts like crystal waterfalls
Each morning my eyes awake and my heart calls
You take me high past the stars in the beautiful sky
Past the sky into worlds that people in their minds pass by
I looked for love all my life searching and waiting
That day I found you there was no more anticipating
I took your hand on a rainy day 
And never knew a person could love this way
In your hearts deep in your soul below
Leaving your flesh designed as a shell with no flow
And I crave your love each day and night
I am patiently wanting to hold you tight
With each birth of the day
I turn to you and say love are you here?
Knowing my day is dead without you near
What a lover is he like nothing can exist
Without his presence his gentle blissful kiss
Placed deep on the chamber of your heart
Soothed on the surface of your soul never to part
And I pray… love me forever this way
In a golden beautiful box my heart will lay
In your hands to keep and to guard for all time
To join as one in your possession as you are also mine
What a lover to love before the birds awake
To love in the evening for your hearts sake
And as the moon and stars set on their stage
I rest even though my soul may rage
I am calm at peace so in love are we
What a lover is he and will always be
To Beloved Jesus

This is an excellent poem. It flows with such charm, grace and reverence. I like the essence of the message which is very touching and elegant. The ending line certain in seals the poem with a great ironical twist. Awesome job! Joseph
