For Him She came to him, there, and entered deep his soul And felt now he, awash, as if upon a craggy shoal She swept words to his heart, as if they had been tethered There, forever, shall she be, until his end of never She breathes life into his heart, where she lightly strokes A chord, a spell, a place not met, but where he has stoked The flame of her in his voice, and again then in his rhyme To promise between the two of them, yes, there will be the time Where they shall meet to gaze and whisper, a kiss upon her ear And he shall know just how to sweep her up in midnight’s clear And lay her upon the rose-strewn bed, a bower made for her As she shall shower him anew, he has never been so sure. She comes to him, then, entering deep his soul She breathes life into his heart, which she lightly strokes In trust they hold, gaze and whisper, his kiss soft upon her ear She holds his heart ever gently, and whispers to him, “dear”.

This is magical. I have been immersed in a book of Ireland and ancient legends, love that lasts 3 lifetimes.. This it so perfectly with that mood. Sandra |

This was very romantic, and the last line: She holds his heart ever gently, and whispers to him, “dear”. Wrapped it all up in perfect tenderness, I enjoyed this very much Sunshine, thank you! |

The flame of her in his voice, and again then in his rhyme To promise between the two of them, yes, there will be the time Where they shall meet to gaze and whisper, a kiss upon her ear And he shall know just how to sweep her up in midnight's clear And lay her upon the rose-strewn bed, a bower made for her As she shall shower him anew, he has never been so sure. ================================== "For Him" is a gift "for us" as well K, this is lovely in both its rhymes divine and its romantic intend. We wish ourselves beautiful ... |

Kari darling sister of my heart this is truly fabulous, I know I always say this is soooooooooooo good but sometimes even the best superlatives in the dictionary don’t suffice. This is one of those times You’ve painted a wonderful picture here, each line a brushstroke bringing the painting to vibrant life as only YOU can do so. As I said outstandingly good. The flow of this is superb and this is a gift of such awesome magnitude, as a valentine this is the ultimate romantic song. You know I utterly utterly love this don’t you This is one of your finest poems ever it shines like a jewel in an ocean of amazing delight Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |
