Every precious jewel

"You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride; you
have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes, with
one jewel of your necklace. NIV Songs of Solomon 4:9

I will always say to you, I love you
You are so very sweet, so pure, it's true
For God made you to radiate His Throne
The finest work Creation ever knew.

I look at you, only view His Beauty
Hear music of Heavenly Hosts on High
Your touch is such I only feel warm blood
Melting into your presence in the sky.

Your lips I taste, pools of melting honey
I smell your pretty scents of blooming rose
As all my spirit, all my soul, adore you
You're every precious jewel, God glows.

Every precious jewel.

Thank you, Charisma. I believe that every God ever made is a jewel. Why else would He make such beauty?

Thank you Floria. Yes I write many of my love poems for my sisters. Anita, lives in Oklahoma,and maintains our poetry site, www.perfectlovepoetry.com Charlene lives in Illinois, and I have several other sisters in New York, Michigan and India who are lovely ladies that have invited me to be their brothers, and I graciously (luckily, I might add) accepted them with open arms into my loving family as sisters. With full rights, I might add. I just LOVE sisters.

Wow, Newell......She must be someone real special for you to love her that way...and I bet she's real lucky to have someone as romantic as you love her.
Beautifully done.

Thank you, Lyra. Yes, each of my sisters is very wonderful. Although I think God made every woman wonderful and we fellas should treat every single woman as a beautiful crown of jewels that God made for Himself and shared with us. I know that I simply adore His wonderful creations of Royal extravagence.

I saw this earlier today and knew I needed to come back to respond to it and what do I find? A slew of poets who already stole the good lines...so I shall just have to say, thank you so much for sharing!

Thanks for coming back. The others may steal your good lines, but they could never, ever steal Your Sunshine. And while I like kind, loving lines, I just adore Sunshine.
