For My Love

Wordsworth wrote of daffodils,
While Kilmer wrote of trees..
And Poe wrote of his Annabel
He lost into the seas

Their lives were touched, inspired and moved,
By beauties pure and real.
Their writings still a legacy,
So others too may feel

The joy that filled their very souls
And caused their hearts to soar
On days when life’s cruel drudgeries
Could leave a rich soul poor.

Thou envy once did settle in
While reading words so fair,
When thinking of those blessed by God
With passions ever rare.

My life while full was missing still
The love of someone kind.
That sweet unselfish special love,
One always hopes to find.

But I am blessed as much as they,
That wrote of beauties past.
With you who fills my heart with joy
And brings it peace at last.

For oft when skies are damp and cold
And seem the darkest blue,
I simply seek a quiet place,
And dream sweet thoughts of you

David, this is exactly how my Honey
and I both feel for each other.
Hugs and Happy Valentines Day,
Ethel
