Romantic Couple painting by~Sekhar Roy
That first morning moment we awaken and our eyes meet When the sun shines upon you, your face sparkles so sweet The way you play and say kind words to me when you toy When you whisper to me, you are my love, pride and joy When we get cozy side by side I tingle in the solemn night That fuzzy warm feeling I get when your arms hold me tight When you sing of times we have shared, getting ready for bed When you recite Keats, Byron and Poe off the top of your head When you ravish me and relish me with oodles of affection When we slurp noodles, we have the twin flame connection How you're kind to animals, excite them with your quirky voices You always get me, I dig it when you help with simple choices When I’m sad you make me laugh with your shameless jokes What pleasurable delights and suggestions your mind evokes When you pray for more kindness less hate in the world When your cheeks blush bold with your soul unfurled He has put a pair together and I am one of them it’s clear You are a Godsend, you are a precious stone and my dear Knowing I’m with you, you with me, always having you here I’ll never truly be alone in my heart when you're away or near
