Your Heart

I will hug it
hold it
stoke it back to life
I will caress it
finesse it
impress it
wash away your strife.

I will honor it
worship it
love it
put it in a safe place
I will protect it
reassure it
shield it
fill it’s entire place.

I will tease it
please it
ease it
thaw it’s frozen ice
I will warm it
heat it
melt it
never thinking twice.

You must be the "master" of end lines. They keep popping up in a surprisingly wonderful way Rob.

I’m thinking that if it is worth having it is worth taking care of in the best possible way. These are lovely sentiments and strong building blocks for any relationship. John
