'Til the End of Time
by Linda L. Dowd

True love is an all-encompassing emotion.
It has the power to move a mountain with
but one sweet kiss ~ one warm embrace.
As the sun rises each day, so too, does our love.
I awake each morning with a smile in my heart
and sleep each night with a smile on my face.
I love you beyond the sun, the moon and the stars.
Your love breathes passion into my soul
and I will love you 'til the end of time.

~ * ~

Love is the unifying force which integrates
one’s soul with that of another.
~ Linda L. Dowd

"I awake each morning with a smile in my heart
and sleep each night with a smile on my face."

...this is nice, for what good is a smile on the face without one in the heart

More and more I'm coming to appreciate Matthew Arnold's "Sweetness and Light". This wonderful poem is another link in the chain that brings it all together.

Thank you, Linda!

Ofttimes, people make love so complicated.
I wrote this simply as this is simply how I feel! lol

I always enjoy your comments, sister spirit!

Earth Angel - The end of Time is a long stretch. But it's never long enough for Love as you well express in your lovely work here. To feel that way about someone is a gift for you and them. Thanks EA. Well crafted with heart. Namyh

My dear Linda,

"Till the end of time"

and beyond...

As the love and sweet aura you so often portray, is that one and only thing that transcends both boundary and while.

Your adoring amorousness is everlasting dear one, as endless, as spirit and truth.

Yes, true love is a gift that we give ~ as well as receive.

As you give, may you receive! I enjoyed your warm response to my poem!

There you go again! ~ Putting the pink in my cherubic cheeks! ~ and I like that! Who needs rouge whenever you come by!

Oh, how very romanical and creative your poem is to inspire my dwelling in anticipation on such a homogeneous thought as love beyond space and time. Beautiful.

Yes, m'dear Southern One, a sweet kiss and a warm embrace can change everything and make you happy to be "ARE".

As always, I enjoyed you dropping by!

Love to you!
