             Beginning of Love
        
         A new love, like the sun
      bringing forth, a  new someone
    making each day warm and bright
    filling everything with radiant light

      All thats within wanting to give
       in another life longing to live
    seeking to know are feelings true
      endless hours spent lovin you

        Dwelling in shadows of my mind
        others before i'm now so blind
       yearnings to stir deep within me
          by your side, i'm aching to be

       Writing for hours, just your name
      fantasy moments playing love's game
     thoughts so strong making heart pound
        images of you now in surround

        Never before such luminous sky
      reflections of us in clouds gone by
     your carresses so tender on me overall
        in your arms, soft place to fall

         Love has arrived, finally here
       cupid and angels starting to cheer
         down that path my heart doth go
      that emotional side only love can show

        A sense of us there from the start
          so natural us heart to heart
          onward now our destiny bound
       Love has begun, let trumpets sound.

Danny~
Wonderful soft images you've painted
with these words.

'in your arms, soft place to fall'

Reminds me of someone special.
Thanks for shaking the memory tree.

       Writing for hours, just your name
      fantasy moments playing love's game
     thoughts so strong making heart pound

Danny, this is such an emotionally perfect and lovefilled poem, how excellent. so many times "love poems" come out "sappy". this one is full of devotion and romance..very well expressed! take care, janet marie

 Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be...

I cannot stomach to read love poetry.  Like JM said, they sound "sappy" too often.  However, I could read this one over and over again.  It almost brought a smile to my face and it definitely let warm feelings into my soul.  Makes me want to do it again... Almost.   When I say that, I know it was an amazing poem.

Just a note to say thanks to all for such nice responses.
Like most of you, I find many love poems sappy as well.  I chose to post this one because I felt it had a different feeling that went beyond the usual stuff.
Thanks again to all....
