             As you lie sleeping....
      
      I watch each breath you take
      and then the smile plays on your face
      as you lie dreaming of the sweet love
                 we just made....


             As you lie sleeping....

      I hold your body near
      you snuggle closer, closer dear
      and down my face escapes a solitary
                 tear....


             As you lie sleeping....

      I let my mind roam free
      and look at all the memories
      and then I know our love was always
                 meant to be....


             As you lie sleeping....

      Again I realize
      your love for me will never die
      I finally found a love on which I
                 can rely....


             As you lie sleeping....

       A pledge I now recite
       To hold you closer, hold you tight
       and let you know that in our lives
                 this love is right....


             As you lie sleeping....
          
                 I learn to love you more....

The intimacy in this poem is beautiful. The kind of intimacy that makes a lasting love special. You must be a very affectionate person......what a fine mixture to blend with love.
I enjoyed the gentle peaceful afterglow.... Good poem!

A true romantic you are.  This is a very tender work and your sentiment glows as brightly as your love.  Good write.

Sunny1,
My heart is touched with your words. A romantic you are, so much so and with many feelings. More of these would be most welcome.

  Bill.....yes, I enjoy the romance in
           poetry, and I'm glad you did,
           too.......thank you, Bill
              (There will be more...)

  Butterflies...I agree...it's the quiet
                reflections that make life
                special. I will share any
                time...I don't want to see
                a butterfly cry!!
