Fair to middlin' of nowhere

You are my quiet contemplation
my safe solitude
on the shores of the ocean
that is your devotion
You are my peace of mind
where love unwinds
what tension binds
Lips I feel upon my neck
are my beloved opiate
Arms enfold me
with words that hold me
Your reach that touches
my soul with rushes
Contentment and yearning
brings my heart to sing
your song so passionately
that your love is all I see

Quite a poem of devotion you seem to have in your life, Lori. Not many can say these things. Good for you, and good on him who gives you peace.

Thank you I do think of myself as a bit of the mushy sort!
