I can't explain what it is,
still, I know it is real.
It sounds like wind whistling through tree branches,
and makes your lips feel as if they've been kissed.
It has a sweetness smell,
it's taste is pleasing.
I have never seen it,
but I know if I could,
it would look just like you.

Love, love, love your love poems! They are sweet without being sappy, upbeat in a mellow thought provoking way. Obviously enjoyed!

Many thanks, Lori, love is the key and to think all these years I fought it.

You were given the wrong key as a kid.  It just took you a while to throw that one away and find a new one on your own. L

Very beautiful, Jerry. It's a special emotion that we capture in flight when the heart is open to receive.

Enjoyed this much.

I agree Margherita, you have to be in the right frame of mind to feel as I did when this poem was written. Thanks for dropping by.
