You say my words are beautiful; Thank You, Milady,You are kind.
They are... but thoughts; and, in my thoughts,
You are always somewhere, there.
But, no surprise; for, when I write them, You dance brightly, in my mind,
and thus, explains perhaps, why words I rhyme
are ever, sweet, and fair.

Yet, words I craft, are, but pale shadow of sweet thoughts I hold for You.
Such pictures that my heart would paint,
cannot be compassed round, with rhyme.
Such words do not exist... save, deep within the Soul...
it is quite true;
and thus, cannot be written here,
and I needs must fail... every time.

Yet, though pale shadow, they may be,
they have sweet virtue; they speak true;
and thus, may stand, as Portrait of a Love,
soft whispered, from the heart;
that cannot not dim, as drifting years unwind...
my tiny gift to You,
a sweet-versed Immortality; to shine,
long after we depart.

These Heart-thoughts, echoing down the years; someday, should they be read by chance,
will whisper...
She was truly loved;
indeed, this was a Grand Romance.

Your soul whispers so softly ~ so sweetly, of that "Grand Romance".

Romantic poetry.
It just never dies.

"Yet, though pale shadow, they may be,
they have sweet virtue; they speak true;
and thus, may stand, as Portrait of a Love,
soft whispered, from the heart;
that cannot not dim, as drifting years unwind...

a sweet-versed Immortality; to shine,
long after we depart.

Yep, just never dies and that's a good thing. We all need the high from time to time.
