Do you love me from deep within your heart?
That secret place where the seeds of love grow.
Do you love me like your sculptured piece of  art?
With slender curves from breast to tip of toe.

Do you love me like your painting by Van Gogh?
A painting of olive groves and orange skies.
Do you love me  like your wine from Bordeaux?
As I dine within your lips and your eyes.

Do you love me like moods of DeBussy?
His  "La Mer" or his "Claire de Lune"
Do you love me like a symphony?
Tides of the sea and light of the moon.

Would you like to compose sheet music alone?
A Sonata of sweet movements of our own.



A poem is never finished, only abandoned.
- Paul Valery (1871-1945)

Loved this my friend, and in reply ...

'Tis Naught But Love

'Tis naught but love
that stirs my soul
swirling it round and round
in golden hues of thee.

'Tis passionate fever
that inflames mine heart
that stokes the flames which ne'er be quenched
when I stand before the temptress thee art.

'Tis Holy Grails and Knights Templar
'tis save the king,
protect the queen,
I'll spill my blood for thee my love.

'Tis show me one small favor please,
just your banner to carry with me,
and if thine heart be mine to possess
I'll swear my allegiance, my life to thee.

W. James Beard, Jr.
