"Hello beautiful" he whispers
and suddenly I am
Nothing has changed about me
except the way his eyes see me
except the way his heart beats with mine
except the way that he loves me.
"I love you" he whispers
I have never felt the innocence
of love, yet that's what this is.
Open, full, unconditional
and I am ever amazed at what he offers
without a thought.
Its like he doesn't know
this is supposed to be hard.
I ask him why me?
He says who else could it be?
And I look around and think...anyone
But its me...me
And I cant help but say to him
I love you too
And when I do my soul takes flight
What an amazing journey
What an amazing man
to whisper to me "Hello beautiful".


for my Damien

Poets often reside on lonely "one-way" streets, alleys and even park benches.

  You made it to Park Avenue.

88's to you both.

"Nothing has changed about me

I have always felt the love my husband showed was through his eyes more than anything else. Loved this poem. Jo Perry

What a wonderful piece of poetical writing, Paula(my daughter's name). Yes, there is no feeling in this world better than being showered with love, and returning same.

This is wonderful! Those magic words are the "comfort food" of love talk! And there is nothing like your own secret recipe from your own home cookin'. ~L
