When looking at our lives
and the love we happily share
Of how we love completely
and for each other care

I think of how through the years
the classic poets of old
Wrote of this ageless miracle called Love
with such beautiful grace they told

They told of great emotions
shared between two lovers
Who gave their love and devotion
to each other more than others

Of how for one another
they would give their lives to die
Knowing not how they would do this
nor the reasons why

They wrote of how the two desired
together to forever be
And to never a day in their lives
without their Love to see

Of how whenever there was space between
and they must be apart
The poets of old wrote
how it seemed to break their heart

These emotions the classics wrote of
couples of today feel so true
We know because they are experienced
every moment by me and you

Ethel:

you brought up such good points here:
the classics are all about love indeed
and then the breaking of that love.

You are a rare find Lady . . .
that you write of such beauty
