     In a Sea of Love
       wanting to drown
         embracing arms
           not easily found

                      inner feelings
                        needing to share
                          with willing heart
                             always there

       emotions swirling
         in a raging pool
           seeking release
             from heart so full

                       one to trust
                         roll the dice
                           takin a chance
                             or thinkin twice

        a scary journey
          lovers quest
            freeing the heart
              from aching unrest

                      is it a dream?
                        lover and a friend
                          quench this thirst
                            found deep within

         so dream i shall
           for eventual day
             when love comes calling
               and decides to stay

Reach for those dreams, Danny, they'll come true!     Very much enjoyed the formatting you used, well done.

 May I never be too busy to help another's load,
Then I'll be drinking from the saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed.

I see you love to dream as I do sir...although we both tremble as we dream.  My tip-toes are my best friends.     This is a beautiful poem, but of course, you know that, I'm sure!  I love it!

VERY nice danny-boy...
your such a poetic romantic...

from my BEH??  
perfect poem Danny...*S*
why its so good...you got Gen's tippy toes  curling and she's trembling...LOL
take care, BEG


 Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there.
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind...
And I know someday I might be looking around
Trying to find some purpose
Well purpose it can't be that hard to find
As long as I've got the wind...
The wind and your love to carry me.

This is beautiful Danny!!! Written with hope, beauty, style, grace and the inner beauty of a man with a wonderful heart.  I loved every line and the format was wonderful.

very beautiful and romantic poem Danny
i loved the wave format
made me feel like i was on the beach with you
watching the tide roll in and out
the waves crashing.
like a cruise on the love boat  
gemini

 I want to be the face you see when you close your eyes
I want to be the touch you need every single night
I want to be your fantasy
And be your reality
And everything between
I want you to need me,
like I need you.
