Dear Gabriella, I only have a little while before I go away I really miss your lovely smile each and every day I hope that you are doing fine and that your getting by I hope this letter will not make you sad and want to cry It’s just that I’m not really sure, if everything will be? But let’s not worry now about? We’ll have to wait and see But ‘fore I go and fight again, there’s something I must do I want to tell you just how much, I really care for you And so just try and think of me, when your alone at night I’m that pillow that your holding onto very tight Please don’t ever let me go, I‘ll never walk away I promise that my love for you won’t leave, and always stays I wish that I could tell you that, together we will be But even if I can’t, please know how much you mean to me And so I wrote this letter, and I hope that it will do But if somehow I can't return, please know these words are true That your love’s like a balmy breeze, that hushes all the while Swaying palm trees back and forth, on lush deserted isles Love that’s like a sweet caress, that tingles with delight Hugs that reach down to my core, and warm my soul at night Your love is like a shooting star, that soared right through my sky A galactic crime of passion needless of an alibi Your love is like a feisty mare’s, unbridled ecstasy That soared across the heavens, in some Greek mythology Your love is like a raging storm, that thrashes through the night A fierce and wanton fury that, keeps lovers close and tight Love that’s like a hurricane, tempestuous and strong Encircling a heart, that has a silent peaceful calm. Love just like a rainy day, that purifies the sky Clearing up my muddied views, that taint and smear my eyes Your love is like a flower on a cloudless sunny day That opens up to ardent warmth, then droops, when its away Your love is like a friend you see, who’s been gone for a while That listens to your feelings, and then leaves you with a smile Your love is like a roller coaster, with it’s highs and lows Sharing of our joys and sorrows, bringing us so close Your love is like that gentle touch, that soothes away the pain That lifts off heavy burdens, and unshackles hardened chains Your love is like a waterfall, that flows into my heart An endless stream of passion, that my love for you imparts Your love is like a raging fire, burning in my heart A kindling of passion waiting, for two sparks to start Your love is like a fantasy, a sweet alluring dream Where passion is a river wild, and true love reigns supreme Your love is like a sweet ballet... That dances tenderly... And tells about a lover’s tale... The tale, of you and me... Forever And Always, Your Antonio [This message has been edited by Richy (05-14-2003 07:22 PM).] |

Thank You Passing Shadows and Sunshine! I had this one poem I had written a while ago. That I felt needed a little something to kind of set it up. And I came up with this idea to try and turn it into a letter from this fellah, to the love of his life. He is getting ready to go into battle again, and he isn’t sure if he will ever see her again. And so, he writes her to profess his undeniable love for her. I hope that helps make a little sense out of it??? lol It’s "kind of" a looooong, poem...lol Oh well... Oh Gosh, my mug shot finally got uploaded... YIKES! I had been having trouble getting that to work... Thanks Ron! Or whoever else it was who finally figured that out for me...

Incredibly romantic! I had all sorts of emotions gushing out of me as I read this exceptionally lovely letter of love. Love & Romance, EA |

Richy, Your work is very warm and heartfelt. I am sure that whoever your special woman is, she knows that she is lucky! You have a gift for writing your feelings. I'm sure your lady will appreciate that because if you don't speak them...you sure can write them. We women are always looking for a man who can talk about the way he feels. Good Job! quatro |

tugs at my heart. This is a love letter that I would have wished to someday receive.(except for the battle) No one could express their love for another as well as these words of yours,Richy. *s M |

Richy, You are wonderfully romantic. I love how you speak of love in all of your poetry. By the way, you have a very kind face. But what did I expect? Anybody that has shown the kindness to me that you have, should have a sweet, kind face like yours. Love, -Patricia |
