Your Words of Love

Your words of love so soft and sweet
will lift my spirit off its feet,
and take it to the blue skies clear
to drift with clouds in stratosphere
until my days on earth complete.

With tenderness your soft words greet
and cause my heart to skip a beat
with longings always to be near
               your words of love.

And so with yearnings non discreet,
your thoughts of passion I entreat.
With gentle whispers in my ear
forevermore I long to hear
of tenderness as you repeat
               your words of love

Congratulations are indeed in order dear John, what a wonderful love you shared, no one can equal it, maybe come near to but never completely, sad that death separates love, but you will find her again, waiting for you, when it is time. A talented write straight from the heart. HUGS AND BLESSINGS, JENNIFER.

The poem is written very well, About love, the poet could clearly tell, Love alone in life is vital, As it makes bliss total, State of no love is brutal, It makes one's heart a hard metal and even a lost-my-hope mental, Poet has defined love as equal to petal!
