  Mere Words

  I searched among the card displays,
     To see if I could find,
  A little something that would say
     Just what was on my mind.

  However there was not a one,
     That captured it just right,
  For no one else can understand
     Just what I’d like to write.

  I even find it difficult
     To try to write it down,
  For how do I portray to you,
     The love that I have known?

  I close my eyes and what I see,
     Is someone I adore;
  A person who is beautiful,
     Write down into their soul.

  Mere words cannot describe
     The many qualities you show,
  The love and caring nature that
     You share with those who know.

  Your kind and gentle temperament,
     Your sweet angelic smile,
  Your softly spoken sentiments,
     That reach across the miles.

  Your smile and laugh that sparkle with
    The softness of your sighs,
  The way your face lights up a room ...
    That twinkle in your eye.

  The loving gestures through the years,
     That quickly come to mind,
  For always you’ve a gentle word
     To calm and soothe I find.

  I struggle and I search to try
     To find some words a’new ...
  And yet I cannot capture
     All the things that make you “you”.

  I shall therefore, be satisfied
     That you must simply “know”,
  Just how I feel about you,
     For with words I cannot show.

Sometimes there just aren't words, are there?
Well, not for YOU, but for some of us...

Well done, my friend.
