For As Long As
~*~
As I make an effort to write my feelings from my heart
About you, my sweet love, I don't know where to start
There are so many emotions churning around inside of me
As I try to write them down for you, my love to see
Being apart as we are now makes it hard our love to show
We try proving love through many ways to let each other know
The first thing I think of when in the morning I awake
At night when I close my eye, in dreams images you and I make
*
Amazed am I at the emotions thoughts of you make me feel
Though other loves I've had none have ever been so real
This love we have found travels across the miles
For each of us to feel our love outweighs the trials
When we see each other face to face as we did a few days past
So hard the effort we try to make each memory we share to last
The feel of your hands as you gently touch my face
The lines and shape of me, with fingertips you lovingly trace
*
The looks we exchange as gazing into each others eyes
Seeing deep inside the other where our inner emotion lies
Etched into our memories when hours to each other we talk
Of our true love and the paths of this trail of life we walk
Our love would become special we knew from the moment we met
The chemistry exchanged between us was as strong as it could get
We met about this time of year a few years ago, it's been
This love we share has grown each day more and more since then
*
We have pledged to each other forever our hearts to give
To never part, to walk hand in hand, for as long as we both shall live
~*~

Oh so beautiful, this, and you Ethel.

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.

If a sigh could be painted in words, you have the gift every heart seeks.  A wealthy woman indeed, my dear Ethel!

Such a pure out-pouring of love from your beauteous and romantic heart.

A love like your's and Gary's is experienced by far too few people in this world.

This was such an open, honest, and tender piece of expressive writing. Very touching, sweet Ethel Mae.

After your recent liaison, I can well-imagine, the miles that are now separating you once again, make it all the more painful for both you Gary.

Here's a big hug for both you and your Honey Bear.

Linda
