Our Endless Love
~ Linda L. Dowd ~

As endless as the rolling seas,
As far as furthest star,
Our love spans the Universe
To distant worlds afar.

This love of ours is sweeter,
Than clover honey made by bees.
Its music rivals that of birds,
That sing high in the trees.

It’s deeper than the oceans blue,
As vast as starlit skies.
Soothing as a springtime mist,
As bright as gold sun rise.

Love feeds our hearts and spirits,
It refreshes like spring breeze.
It connects us with the Universe,
As we flow through life with ease.

No matter what befalls us,
We’ll stand strong ~ side by side..
We’ll rally and we’ll conquer,
And for our needs, God will provide.

As endless as the rolling seas,
As far as furthest star,
Our love spans the Universe
To distant worlds afar.


Love is the unifying force which integrates
one’s soul with that of another.
~ Linda L. Dowd

Earth Angel,

I normally avoid love poetry as it is not usually my cup of tea.  Except when it flows with meaning, feeling and artistry such as this.  

This is a wonderful piece of work, I am getting rather disturbed that people may think I do nothing but compliment the poets on this site,  I am known elsewhere for being totally honest (though diplomatic)and I can assure you my standards have not dropped.

I am truly amazed at some of the work I have read and this stands out for its  form and content, emphasised perfectly by the repetition of the first stanza at the end.

Namaste,

Ivor

Mornin' Dix!

I would have given due credit to that wonderful photo I found on the net, but the photographer's name was not mentioned.

I'm pleased you enjoyed this touch of romance!

Loves 'n hugs,

Ivor ~

That was a humdinger of a gratifying reply to read! Poets love to have their writing appreciated ~ and your show of appreciation is greatly appreciated! lol

Thank you for the kind and generous words. In fact, I saved them to a file where I keep some of my favourite comments. Perhaps that the Leo in me! I find them such a joy to read whenever cold winds blow through my life.

Namaste
The divine in me honours the divine in you.

I like the way you begin and end this one.  And the middle is right good too!   Seriously, this one is tender, and has good images throughout.  Well done.

You make a Leo proud. I always enjoy your poetry and the pics that come along with it. You and Marge Tindall have inspired me to write some of my own poetry with pics.

Good morning, Bill! I'm pleased that my posting of pics with my poems has been a source of inspiration for you! Like yourself, I appreciate Marge's creative graphics, photographs, and paintings that accompany her poetry.

Enjoy your day! Go out and make it a good one!
