Picture by Alan Ayers

* * * *

My life was void of love
Until you came and showed me how
I left my troubles far behind me
And started living here and now

My road seemed long and winding
But you guided me from the start
As you came and took up residence
Within the confines of my heart

There were no colors in my rainbow
And my skies were dull and grey
But you filled my life with color
On the day you came my way

My flowers soon had more fragrance
And the clouds had a silver lining
My days seemed so much brighter
And like a diamond, I was shining

You filled my heart with love
Soon my heartaches were no more
How I beamed when in your presence
With the smile that I now wore

I felt capable of anything
For your love lifted me high above
You filled my life with happiness
When you came and showed me love

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

(smiles) Oh Sue, this is beautiful, sweet friend, I know this feeling ever so well as I have lost my love and now I'm semi-black and white now but know if I find love again I will feel rainbows grace evermore! (kiss on cheek) This is lovely, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Beautiful imagery in your words- you have painted a lovely dream.  May we all gain more color, more sweetness, more fragrance in our lives- or rather, let us become more aware of all of this that is already there.

How beautiful...

Thank you...

Sue, as I was reading your poem, I was thinking that you have to really be in love to write of it so beautifully. I really enjoy reading your love poems. The happy ones remind me of me and my Love.
