A love kept within
With nowhere to go
Has discovered a place
And declared it its home

An untapped spring
Resembles this love
Flowing in secret
As free as a dove

Nobody compares
Such a beautiful soul
Your eyes like diamonds
Your heart like gold

Never have my lips
Felt a touch as true
So completely lost
Am I, in you

I was swept away
At my first sight
You were like an angel
Shrouded in light

An assurance was made
We sealed it with a kiss
My adoration remains unyielding
I promise you this

Like a gust of wind, ne'er trapped in a snare,
Like a lotus blossom, ne'er sprinkled by water,
Let me, like a unicorn, in solitude roam.*~ Hymn Of Buddha

One time before I was a member of this wonderful forum.  I went under the name of 'Keeper of the Keys', if any of you remember.  I have to admit that I never got as many replies to my writings then as I did on this very first one today.  Thank you all so incredibly much.  I love you all!  

 God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Beautiful poem.   Execllent way to start off. I like how your name fits so well with the poem--they're almost inseparable.

Welcome, Once (or twice--hopefully many more visits), to the forums.

This is beautifully romantic...welcome to passions once more.
I'd only make to very small changes in the first and third stanza to just perfect the rhyme...I was going to e-mail them to you, but since you've no e-mail listed...Just a suggestion here:

A love kept within
(With nowhere to roam)
Has discovered a place
And declared it its home

Nobody compares
(Such a beauty to hold)
Your eyes like diamonds
Your heart like gold
