That Love is just a fantasy,
happiness never real--
that blue sky can't be seen
and warmth just a steal?

Thank God's imagination
for that which can't be bought,
for the heart's greatest treasure
is born within His thought.

Should you never behold
the shell only eyes can see,
perhaps you'll see the
beautiful that I aspire to be.

For arms that go around you,
and her heart which lets you soar,
behold the face of loveliness
in the wife whom you adore.

For every little bit of her
that's reflected in a friend
that's lasting and forever true
is not one whit pretend

This mortal life is fleeting,
it's time we misconstrue,
because Eternity will always know
the Love that's me and you.

To Steven S, thank you for inspiring me with this poetic thought. Here's to love, and to all my other poet friends, as well--I adore you!

A quote from an anon pipster, " I don't love her less because I love you, No...I love her more." I believe love is as endless and timeless as space. Theres always more to discover about love. Baten down the hatches Klassy the wind is pickin up. :-)
