Petals of roses and gardenias
Have covered our love bed
With so very little effort
My mind is easily read

We lie so close together
Beside the flickering candlelight
Within each others arms
Is where we'll spend this night

Our bodies glow in profile
As my love for you now burns
My heart grows ever fonder
It's for you that it now yearns

Lips meet in anticipation
Warm breath against my skin
In this, our game of love
We're both guaranteed to win

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Such a beautiful love poem.. Enjoyed and thank you for sharing.

I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait.

Sue, you are one of the few people I know who can continually write love poems and each one is more romantic and beautiful than the previous.

I just love reading these and have saved each one.

Hugs, Marti
